P-Limited Motors - Im going to jump on the hot seat.

[rayzerdesigns]

are you talking dynamite doug?? and is that the 1800?? if so it has been discontinued for quite some time now...the 3835 which is the 1500 is still available

[Doug Smock]

I was looking at the Proboat 3630-1500 (DYNM3835) I think I have found one or two.

[Darin Jordan]

ok darin the a3630 is out of stock. Fix it please sir!

umph!!

[Brushless55]

Im sure i will duprise some people at nats in 2016 eith the 1500s.. Opened a few eyes in colorado this year.. Lol

I was impressed with how well those motors ran in your boats

[Brushless55]

I don't know who you are talking too, but that's not true.

PSFEMBC has opened up the classes to some options, but they are examples like the TP3660-1950, or the Turnigy 3659-1900KV.

There may be guys trying other things, but if they do, they are generally running for no-points.

That's the first thought that came through my mind when he told me this

[Brushless55]

wish dynamite would bring back their 1800

is this the motor your talking about Ray ?

Since I haven't had the time to read through all the replies and after looking through the list of accepted P motors, does the list imply that if I use a Leo 3660, 2050 KV motor for my JAE 21 FE, would it or would it not be allowed? The motor has the same specs as the AQ.

The Leo is not legal.

Nothing else is legal other than whats listed in the NAMBA rule book.....any other motors discussed in this thread are just wishful thinking.

[Tamelesstgr]

Darin, would you please tell me that part number of the prop that gave around a 50 amp load? I need to do a similar simulation if a load so u can take amperage readings to calibrate my modified Eagletree datalogger.

[rayzerdesigns]

So who all here would be interested in a single manufacturer maybe 2 motors or 1.. Make it a true spec class??

[Steven Vaccaro]

Ray until everything is the same it won't be a spec class. Hulls esc motor props and hardware. Like Michigan runs their sv27 class.

To make it a true spec class?? Motor and prop would do it, no mods to either. That is the best way to make it real evan. If you made it specified hull I would drop out, any hull would be my vote.

That's not a "SPEC" class. Like "Spec Miata", One car, One motor, etc...

I'm to the point where I'm ready to let P-LIMITED whither and go away, like LSO and LSH did. Too many arguments, too many complaints, too many different opinions on what is "right".

If someone wants to promote a "one-hull" class, like the Spec SV27, that's fine. I do NOT think it should, however, EVER be a "National" class. My reasons for that are likely similiar to why Randy would be against this: You'd be pushing "one-guy's" stuff on everyone, and the class would be at the mercy of that single manufacturer.

Great idea for CLUBs and "exhibition". TERRIBLE idea to wrap "National" rules around.

NOW, if someone wants to further discuss the concept of a "LIMITED" motor class, based on MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS, NOT MANUFACTURERS and PART NUMBERS... LET's talk...

"Any Motor not exceeding 36mmx61mm, 4-Pole"... Something like that. Forget worrying about KV, Motor Weight, etc... (all those things that are difficult or impossible to TECH)... If you want to try to run a 2500KV motor for 6-Laps in a 33" Mono... go for it...

When we get there... I'm all ears.

[RandyatBBY]

I think there should be one of the P LTD classes that is geared more towards entry. The Entry class is more to get new be's and less skilled a place to grow as always. This may be more important for the growth of clubs and Nationals. A super stock P LTD could have a more rock solid motor and esc but still limit the size of prop and it can be worked.
