I have a 4500kv motor from a mini eight will it make the boat faster
Hi Welcome!
The answer to your question will be a few other questions: how big is your boat? How many cells are you planning on using? What size prop?Quote:

Minimono
Stock with 3 s 25 c 2100 may I'm going to get a x432 prop this weekend. Thanks for the help
4500kv is too high, you will be better off getting a motor in the 3200kv range and 3s will be fast!
4500kv at 11.1volts, unloaded RPM is 49,950, way too high, and you are not running a SAW set up. I too wish AquaCraft will put a slightly higher kv motor in those boats, they are really aiming for the broadest spectrum of potential buyers.
Thanks
