Anyone mounted these I've got some 5692 mounts that are too wide to get any angle in the sponsons of my drambuie. I think I'd like to use some bottom mounts but I'm open to suggestions, I don't think I could do the carbon fiber mounts myself.That odd moment when you think, "Is RTR the way to go?"

These are o.k. They are approx. 3.5" wide. cheap and good if they are useable.

What I have here is my homemade sheet.It has layers of Fibreglass cloth then CF on the outside to resist heat.It doesn't cut to bad.I use a cheapy coping saw and drill.I usually use a file to smooth the edges.I only started this awhile back

So has anyone tested one of these monsters yet? any opinions? I bought the Turnigy T20 Aquastar and plan on putting it in a 8th scale hydroplane, but still working on hull.
Also whats the verdict on the waterjacket is it usable can it be sealed-up to work or is the OSE waterjacket a must.R/C Unlimiteds

Well I've tested just the motor, and if you don't mind leavin the jacket on semi permanent you can use black rtv sealant. Keith Bradley has video of his 73 mystic on twin proteus. It's also for sale on his forum. Check it outThat odd moment when you think, "Is RTR the way to go?" Then you see your hard work, and laugh at the thought.Comment

Well I also bought a SSS5694 motor from horracing.com and it is the way to go if your looking to build a 100 mph cat.
I'm running this motor in my 1/5 4x4, and on 8s I smoke the tires 100 feet down the street. Forget wheelies. I can't get traction with racing slicks!

Here are the specs. for ths motor.
SSS 5694 6 pole 1200kv motor.
Type: 5694
KV: 1200
Y/D: 2.5D
Max Amp (A): 292
Max Volt (V): 41

Max RPM: 50K
Non Load Current (A): 3.5
Shaft Diameter (mm): 8
Motor size diameter x length (mm): 56*94

As you can see this motor runs wher it is needed to get the big speeds that large boats need.
I seen a nice cat for sale with the wrong motors in it. I bet that if he installed these motors in it he would get his speeds he was looking for.
HERE IS THE BEST PART, 99.00 PLUS 24.00 air freight gets it to your door in a week! These are TP power motors with racing specs! If your looking for even more power try the new TP Power 5850 motors. http://tppower.com/sort.asp?class_id=4&news=2156mount.jpg56sssm2.jpg56sss.jpgtwissted from speed.
