    well thats still to be determined. Most of us are still testing and from what i see there is no one brushless system that everyone agrees is the best for the Rio. we are getting closer but it looks like its going to be a combo of brushless system and prop. i am testing a new setup today, 60a water cooled esc paired up with a 2900kv motor and stock prop. i hope to get decent results, we will see.

    HA!! THANKS FOR SOME INPUT!
    I am still playing with stock setup.
    My stock esc fried, but i got a new stock one and put on top of motor and cooling coil.
    It staying cool for now, and the water getting colder now fall is hear.
    I will be brushless soon, looking at 2s may be 3s not shore on setup yet.

    Thanks for all input.

    well i just got back from testing and have some good news and bad.lol I think over all it was a success but adjustments are necessary. The Rio has really good speed id say mid 20's. It does suffer from torque roll but not terrible, i am adjusting trim tabs and adding some self adhesive lead weights to help. i didn't finish testing because i literally ran into a snag.lol Just when i was getting everything under control i ran over a stick and it took out my shaft. i will report back when i get it back in the water.
