Turnigy 180A ESC

[stlurface]

Adding 180A ESC and 4074 Leo in Revolt, where is best place to mount ESC? Pretty tight regardless but thinking in front of motor rather than where stock was. Thoughts?
Thanks!

The only issue I see is that by mounting it in front of the motor you might be moving the COG too far forward. The ESC is indeed bulky, I don't see how you can squeez it into the stock position. I have a DF Pursuit which is similar in size ( a bit bigger perhaps) and I mount it on the portside besides the motor, this also helps cancelling out the torque that is generated by the motor.

Hear a link that may help you with placement of the 180a esc. http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...-leopard-build

If you have the room next to the motor on the port side,
You could setup it like this.
It should help a little bit with CG and balance out some of the torque roll the boat may have.

Thanks Guys,
That's sort of what I was thinking but good to hear it from others, I'll let you know how it works when the 100' of snow here in MI melts.
