    I'm thinking about doing a set of twin 540's on mine. Or maybe buying another castle motor for twin 1515's

    I was thinking about twin 1515's, but ended up with a 13lb boat when I installed all the stuff and batteries... It didn't float well.

    I actually meant twin 1515's in my tc 31, not the ekos.

    Sure. I still have the box for it too! Here's the info; https://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...ad.php?t=14252


    BTW- I did some RPM calculations and...


    3s 2900Kv = 32190
    4s 2900Kv = 42920

    I'm thinking 4s, 32mm props and spin it up wicked! The motor is rated for 4s, so why not?

    Are you a Tower member? if so, backorder an EKOS hull, they should be in next week. If you use a discount #, they are like $120.

    You don't want my hull. It's all messed up from paint coming off and ply separation.

    I'm sure youve seen the proboat thundercat. Its actually a really big hull for 31-inches. really wide with lots of room inside.

    OK, I ordered two of the 2900kv outrunners and two couplers.

    I checked the spec's and the motors I'm running now (upgraded from stock) are max 475watt.

    The little outrunners are rated at 600 watts. So they will be an "upgrade" and the $11 motors are in fact more powerful than the stockers. Wow. We'll see if they are an improvement. =)

    Steve still has some 3mm-130 couplers (they work with the stock cables) and Jeff has some too and can also make the 3mm-062 couplers for the wire drives. Cool, less weight, less cost, more power. I like it already!
