Got the Sky RC Proteus X524 from Keith today. It's huge! Huge!!

Here compared to a Leopard 5692. Of course the Proteus is closer to the camera but still...

I use the same motor mount in my 40" mono. It is limited in cooler size unless modified.

The coolers on the 512 & 524 are too long for that mount.

Yeah your right... To close to the camera.
Makes the motor look WAY bigger than it actually is.

Thats good to know. I use the http://southriverrcboats.com/ rail mounts in my monos. They are two piece, front and rear, and lets you build the way you want. I think the jacket will come off and be replaced by something that doesn't leak anyways. An o-ring change to something fatter will probably fix it.

@gerardobrando. If that question was for me - I wont test it until next spring. Too much on my table right now (boats, that is...). It will go into a 42" mono. I'll run it on 12s on a SeaKing 130A HV from Steve and try som gasser props. I think it'll spin a ~67 mm without a hickup

[keithbradley]

Znus,
Yours leaks? I tested a few of these to a decent pressure and they were fine...if yours is leaking I guess I will have to go through all of them. If there is a problem I will get it resolved.

heres another sirius motor but it does not have the adjustable kv...looks awesome as well..mhz has some stuff specifically made for them sometimes so maybe its only a one off..am thinking about getting one..beastly!!!

I'm not sure how you meant that, but the motors in this thread are not made by Sirius...
Sirius makes the purple motors I sell...the Proteus motors aren't from them.

You are a brave man using a 130 amp esc on a 67mm prop and on 12s......................

Agreed Peter:

Kinda reminds me of an old song from the 50's (I think)...

Kaboom kaboom...shannna shannna, kaboom kaboom....shannna shannna Kaboom!

How about a side by side picture. Arnt they almost identical in diameter?

When the boss asks..

Yes, they are almost identical in diameter. The Proteus X524 is 56 (55,8) x 112.

@Keith. Yep, the seals (o-rings) doesn't fit very tight. Just speaking for myself - It doesn't matter and I'll fix it myself.

@Punisher & Doby. You're both experienced enought to know that when the kv goes down, volts go up (aiming for 25-30k rpm) the amps come down. If I draw 100A on 12s I still get some 4400 watts and get some headroom to 130A (180A burst). The reason why I'm so sure of this is because a friend runs a 40" cat with a 560kv 4962 Outrunner on 12S with a 80A HV esc with a 57 mm prop. His esc is 86 degrees Farenheit after the LVC hits, which means he can't be drawing more than 40-50 amps......and his cat is plowing through the waves. CG is way off. Maybe a 67 mm prop is a bit over the top but let us join up in this thread next may - june and see how it went
