    Revolt on 6s

    Bought a used Revolt awhile ago that had been damaged and missing parts.Put the 1800 kv motor back in it with a 3/16 cable and no liner. Added some glass to the inside nose for weight, ran a M445 prop on 6s and got 53 mph everytime I ran it today.The temps stayed around 105 all day long.

    What esc are you using for 6s and is it the aquaqcraft 1800kv motor.I have just bought one and I want to run it on 6s.

      I am using the 1800kv aquacraft motor with a seaking 120 esc. I measured a 2 oz. cup of rosin [epoxy works better] and poured in the nose for weight. Running a M445 prop. I also added a 3/16 flex cable with no liner and a peice of cooling tubing on the stuffing tube to help keep the water out.

                I have the seaking 120 esc and the prop but I am waiting for a prop balancer before I try the prop. Cheers.

                  Been running 55 mph with some adjustments. Getting ready to put a Dynamite 6 pole 2000kv in her.

                    i wouldnt . your already running better then that 6pole 2000 will get you . thats the motor they use in the blackjack 29 v3 . it runs hot on 6s .if your running 55 and coming in cool with that aquacraft motor i would stick with that .
                    thats been my experience with the motor .
                    maybe the revolt is lighter so that might be in your favor .but that motor in my bj29v3 runs kinda hot .

                        Instead of the Dynamite 6 pole 2000kv, I went with a 180 ESC and a Leopard 4082 1600kv I had laying around.

                            Just got it put in. I'll let you know as soon as I run it, hopefully this weekend.
