King Of Shaves C1 Brushless!

[Bug777]

I feel your pain mate. Took mine for a run last weekend & lost a flex shaft in 4m of water. This has been the most expensive rc i have ever had with the least amount of run time & to top it off 1 of my Turnigy packs has puffed up after 2 uses & H/K won't replace it. I have sent them pics & the postal service won't take it because it could blow up, so i don't get any help off them because they want it back.

guess i need to reprogram my kos for 3s, have it set for 2s nows...but im hard of hearing and cant hear this sucker beep beep, my hobby shop guys had trouble hearing it too, im gonna be running 32mm props....should be interesting

[JPriami]

What motors are you running?

[dano1]

stock motors for now, thinking of running fiego later....dont mess with it??? guy that programmed esc again had issue hearing the left esc during program....kinda has me spooked because when i purchaced the boat used the left engine was falling off line during bench tests .......lost program somehow but is online again now and set for 2s for 4 total

I was just curious. The feiagos are good in these. I'm running 9xls in my saga hull.

Leopard or Tacon 4 pole motors would be nicer than Feigao's in this. They have nice ones in 28mm x 60mm.

I have a pair of 5050 kv's for a Drifter S build. They also have 2550 kv @ hobbypartz.com either are about $46 each on sale. 1200 watts each. Check Feigao specs for their 380xl motors, 1/2 the watts or so only....

hows the saga perform with that set up?

[dano1]

been looking at the leapords for all my fleet, but the fiegos seem to be all i want to push thru this hull, dont wanna blw her over just yet, what do think of the 32mm props? what kind of speeds on stock with 2s for 4 total

[JPriami]

ray schrauwen those spec for the leopard you posted are for a 5050Kv motor? thats way too much dont you think?

[dano1]

I just want a twin to run good and have some decent run times, if i wanna make fast blasts ...i'll run the genesis....now thats a fun boat to play with :)

[JPriami]

hows the saga perform with that set up?

Runs great. I can run 3S or 4S and i dont have any problems.

[dano1]

what type of speeds ya getting?

[JPriami]

9xl's/11.1v lipo/40mm = 46 MPH
9xl's/14.8v lipo/40mm = 62 MPH

Im wanting to get a genesis hull at some point.

This kos has the kentic rudder and newer adjustable prop stingers installed, waiting on the prop shaft collars to keep the props on in case of a collar backing off....if thats what there called...lol
