    Question ??Neu for 43" Conquest

    Hey guys, just wanted to know if the Neu 1527 is enough for single power, direct drive for a Aeromarine Conquest 43" Cat?? Or would the 2215 be the one??
    I plan on running 8S to 10S lipo.... Any help would be great!

    Thanks

    We are going to run 1527's (or 2280's) in our 1/8th Hydros and Open cats out here in Cali. These will be 10S boats BTW.

    I am thinking about 3060/10 or 2215/2Y....I want low temps, good run time, 5-8min run time... Speeds of 55-65mph... will work...I need a FE brother to keep up w/ my Gas Conquest, which has no issues doing 58-60mph...LOL..... I do not want to under power this project...

    A couple of us are setting up our Open Monos (DF Sniper hull) with 3060/10 on 10S2P batteries. AUW +/- 17 to 18 pounds and 44" hull length. We should be in the water by mid-January with them.

    The yellow boat in a couple of the photos is another DF hull called a Storm. 32 inches. The pictured one is mine. I have an orange Sniper on the way. It will run on 3060/10 with 10S2P packs.

    I personally think you guys are thinking WAY overkill on these motors.... but perhaps that's the goal???

    Roger Newton powered his 1/8th Scale Unlimited 2005-ish Formula boat on 10S1P using a 2215 and 40-160 ESC and it was easily into the mid-70s before it would just not stay on the water any longer.... And we all thought that motor was WAY overkill for a 1/8th... Ray Fuller is doing the same with his 1/8th... 70's plus...

    A 1527 would MORE than power a 43" hull into the 60's... with room to spare... and it's CONSIDERBLY less expensive...

    BUT, all that said... This will be fun to watch... build away and then make some videos... I've gotta see this!!

    Yep, forgot to mention that. I ordered mine through Paul and I bought the CyberStorm from him. Impeccable build!! Nice boat.

    BTW - Paul's is running an 8S set up. Looks plenty fast!!

    Darin, the 1527/1.5Y (850KV) might be the ticket! I will not have this complete until late January ... I dont want any heat issues, with too small of a motor! That would sure keep this Cat lite, to use 1527 and 10S1P .... If it hits 60-65 I will be happy!!!

    I'm not trying to talk you out of something you want to do... but with the significant price difference, I think it's something worth thinking about and research...

    What kind of run time did the 1/8th Formula get on 10S1P?? I have 2 4350mAh 25C 5S1P packs, and I might order some 5S1P 6000mAh 25C for the Conquest.. Or go the cheap route and buy two more 4350's..

    Not completely sure on that one... I know he did at least 5-laps running VERY wide on a 1/8th course... I don't know what the cells came back with...

    Which sort of explains what a few of us are doing out here with the Open Cats and 1/8th hydros. We have a gentlemen's agreement that we are going to restirct motors to either the 1527 or 2280 and run 10S power.

    My Avenger Cat will run a 2280/12, the 1/8th hydro is getting a 1527/1.5 Y, the Sniper is the 3060/10. All on 10S packs.

    The Sniper we just got silly with, but they should be fun. I am hoping that the 44" boat on a 3060/10 will be on the quick side!!
