      Good luck, let everyone know how it works.
      Yes its fast, yes it will go far away, yes its expensive. No you cant try it.

          Here is a video I made from saturday. I tried the brushless the next day but it made my batteries so hot i couldnt touch them so I converted back. I think the brushless needs a 3s pack not a 2s pack, ny suggestions?

            It's not a 2S or 3S issue it's a C rating issue... and your pack doesn't have a high enough C rating for the brushless motor you're using. My Ammo 35-28-3900 and 2S 1250 mah 20C pack will get very warm / hot and that pack is good for 25amps.

              Thanks for the info....I will have to do research on the c rating and my particular motor/esc. Interesting info.

                  Here are some pics of the coil I just fabricated. Its a little tight but it fits. I used brass/copper (not sure) and soldered it together thinking the solder would give more area to help the heat move to the water....we'll see!

                        That ammo is brushless? What other hardware do you have to support it?

                            Those are the custom made rudders? Does anyone make anything semi bolt on thats similar?

                              No. you're right, they are custom made. They are also direct bolt on replacements. No mods needed to install.

                                Do you sell them? Does someone else?
