I know nothing.

Thanks a lot, I will look for the mono sealant and pull everything off and reseal. Do you know if the battery's are hooked up in series or parallel. I am not sure if the motor runs on 7.4V or 14.8V.

series 14.8V. Easy to do with bullet connectors, no added wiring needed.

Nice boat. Thanks for the photos. What voltage does the boat need to run? If I put 2 3s 5000mha packs can I run in parallel and get more run time or is 11.1v not enough power?

[SirBudman32]

NO 11.1 is not enough, it need 14.8 to even arm the esc. I run two 2s 4000 and 5000 lipos in series, and get 4-5 minutes run time.

I can't see why you only get 4 or 5 min out of 2 5000mha battery's. I get like 40 min out of my rc car with 1 5000. I guess a boat draws that much more power.

4-5 minutes is about what folks get on 1p setups. A boat is drawing max amperage all the time, and when coming out of corners it's spiking even higher!! Cars coast and arent run full throttle all the time.
