Hey guys, I switched P hydro with P mono.

I had P mono and P limited mono the same day. Some could easily have swapped out a motor and ran their mono in two classes. This way they can.

Terry

Now you have got "P" Mono and "P" Offshore both on Sat.

Ta,Da !! Michigan Cup Sign Ups are ready on

rcracingevents.com

Do not mail payments in!

Because the event will be over multiple days, each day is listed as a single event because of the limitations of RC Racing Events . You are only going to be charged the registration fee once and since 8th scale will be run on 2 consecutive days please sign up on both days so we can get the heat sheets right and again you will only be charged for one entry .

True but the objective was if you wanted to run the same boat in P-limited Mono and P-Mono you wouldn't have to change motors multiple times on the same day to run in both classes. We will try to space P-Offshore and P-Mono far enough apart so I you are running the same boat in those classes you should have time to get it ready, as long as you are not running the same batteries in both classes.

To run P Offshore and P mono with the same hull you need a motor change also.

No ya don't. I run the same motor. However, I'll have to pick one because I just can't run everything. It's the nature of the beast. Either own 5600 boats and a pallet of batteries or pick classes based on what you can handle.

We felt there was more likelihood that guys would want to run their monos in P and P limited on different days than would need a motor swap from P mono to offshore.

Last year I just changed props. First time I've run p offshore.

[madmikepags]

The only things with running p mono and offshore the same day is heat in the motor and if you only have 1 or 2 sets of batteries. Been running p mono and offshore with the same boat just swiching props. I will not be running p mono this year.

I guess P is big in MI.

Motor/Esc cooling

Ray, here is a simple trick.
After your heat, pump fresh cold water through the cooling system.
Can use a small electric pump pulling water from your beverage cooler
or even as simple as taking a mouth full of water from your ice cold
water bottle and just blowing it through the line off of your rudder.
This may sound silly but it is amazing how fast your motor and esc will cool.
Knowing also that these classes will not be back to back there will be plenty
of time for 100% cool down easily ready for all heats in both classes.
Ok.....now for all the jokes about this reply.....

[ray schrauwen]

Yep, had o do that on my GEICO after 4 min runs. Its actually not setup just right yet. All my other boats come out Luke warm and could go right back in. Its my battery tally that is low so, I'll build up some stock if possible.

Oh, except my q sport, that thing is nuclear.... Need more pond time and the shaft I bought from Dasbota.

OK Guy's and Dolls
Here is my new plan for "P" offshore
But I need help

I don't recommend a twin for an offshore racer, just my opinion.
