i bought one of the first spartans its the esc pulsating/ shagged brand new. not long after this video, the esc blew up.

O i have not heard one pulse like that it seems like a quicker pulse than ive heard before

then i upgraded the motor to a cc1515 and t180 and ran this on 6s as some one done for me it lasted a while and the esc fried as well i replaced the esc with another t180 lasted for a while and it popped too. after three esc fring in a plastic hull it was not pretty all the battery trays were distorted from the heat the bottom of the hull was not level any more and it even melted the nose of the boat some how.
so i sold it after that.

I'm always around, always happy to help

I got a chance to run on Erie this past weekend.
It was calm the one day, the next there was some good waves;


Wasn't running it as hard in the vid as I had, but it was pretty choppy. I even got the chance to run 6s the day before. Forgot the logger at home though.
Didn't have any issues with the drive line loading and unloading or the hull. They need to take the hull seam gluing robot off 11 so the hulls can bond right.
This is where the boat really shines. Didn't flip or buoy it at all, it would be more stable with a longer rudder as it did get squirrely a few times.
