    you guys are great. I dont like using esc that arent at leat water resistant or water cooled, but of course water is very dynamic in property and it finds its way into anything. That being said and i promise not to ask again , what if any performance gains did you notice with the ammo 2300? and where o where did you put your sv motor and esc after you upgraded? i would like to keep the stock esc on the sv so the ammo 2300 works for me. Thank you all for the suggestions theres nothing like OSE for advice......see you all in the water

      Isn't the Ammo motors input voltage a bit higher than 7.4 to be efficient?

        hi

        Does anyone know if there's any need to drill the motor bracket in order to mount the Ammo motor? Or its a direct bolt on?

          Ibyte - I would prefer on the water than in it.
          Coollio, not sure about the ammo but Feigao is a bolt on. I'm not sure but I would say that most just bolt on.

              They are all bolt on (standard mounting holes)

                  That depends on what you are putting it in, and which Feigao.
                  2 AMMO MOTOR VS. 23 FEIGAO MOTORS.

                      you're in the SV board, so I'll assume you like V hulls. Although the SV27 is a great starter boat, I, and others, don't like how it spends a lot of time upside down. Continuing with the assumptions, I'll assume you want RTR. RTR V hull? I'd get the Pro boat Fastech. It's not a pretty boat, but it runs well. I'm making one a Jet boat!

                      Again that has a lot to do with the boat and which motor. Assuming you go with the Fastech, keep it stock first, then we can talk about upgrades!

                        Alot of people do the Ammo 2300 as a direct replacement for the stock motor. You may need to prop down slightly. But there are some that use the X440 prop with no problems.

                            would the CF 45 or 48 props be to much? for the ammo 2300? i have a bunch of them just want to get it right as they work really well with the stock sv motor. I have tried to research the forums and other sites and was wondering is the ammo 2300 more a replacement motor or a upgrade?

                              The CF45 would probably be too much for the motor/ESC. The Ammo is intended as an upgrade because of the higher KV. However, you will need to start with a smaller prop like the x437, x637, x440, x640 etc. because it is a 2 pole motor and does not have the torque as the stock motor. I have read that some guys may even use a x642 with this motor, but of course, there was an upgrade to a higher amp ESC.
