The new pond
I stopped by the larger pond that we have permission to run on and took some pics. Sorry for the quality as it was with my cell phone. The water level has come up quite a bit and it is more than large enough to do whatever we want.IMPBA 20481S D-12Comment

Could use some advice/input. Was wanting to run most of what I have on 4s1p, or 2p. Have pretty much decided on the Neu Castle 2200kv for it will fit the mount in my Titan34,where as the 580L won’t. Also, I believe it’s a much better motor than the Feigao. Someone in the swap shop is selling a Neu Castle 2650kv, I realize that at 4s2p this motor may be a bit high on rpm’s, but hey, it’s only $85! What say you?Comment

The only concern is whether or not the motor will be able to spin up. Keep in mind that with the higher RPMs, you'll need to run a smaller prop.
I believe that you are correct about the kv being a little high. To give you a comparison, I was looking at running similar kv on my Viper (hydro) and on my Matrix (rigger). For my setups on 4s1p, this is more in line with SAWS and would push the limit of appropriate RPM.
I don't have any experience with that motor, but it is important that it has the torque to spin up. Otherwise, you will likely generate a lot of heat and have major cavitation while getting up on plane.
I think you may be best served to get additional input from some of the guys that run monos more. I'm sure Chuck could provide some good input, but as for me, I have almost no experience with the monos.
I know this is not the answer that you were looking for. I wish I could help more. Ask Diego what Jay Turner ran in his monos. I believe he's had discussions with him at length about his setups.IMPBA: 7-Time FE World Record Holder "Don't think outside the box. Rather, refuse to admit that the box exists in the first place!"

I could just buy some 3s batts, but 3s won't work with anything else I have, (yet, that mini eco on 3s would be a blast) Guess I'll wait on the swap shops, or shake the money tree, ThanksComment

Todd, the other possibility is you may be able to borrow one of our motors to try. I'm going to let Danny borrow a 2300kv motor to test his mono out. After he's done with it, you are more than welcome to test with it. I'll look and see what else I have.IMPBA: 7-Time FE World Record Holder "Don't think outside the box.

Guys,
I'd like to get started on the NAMBA forms, but we still need an official club name. Let's agree on what's been posted or toss more ideas out please.
Meniscus, Please try to get in touch with Phil as you are the only one who spoke with and met him already. Thanks"A quick temper will make a fool of you soon enough."
