I finally got a chance to drive my Stiletto with the Castle 1512 1800kv that I got from Diesel. I was a bit nervous at first reading the forums but all in all this boat is alot of fun. It just looks awesome on the water. I had no issues at all but have yet to prop up.
Setup:
Motor: Castle 1512 1800kv
Esc: Seaking 120amp
Prop: S215
Batts: Single 4s 5000mah 40C Turnigy/Zippy.
Placed battery all the way forward, Motor all the way up and prop shaft neutral just above the ride pads. I was extremely happy with the way the boat performed!
Had some water in the boat but not much, going to use silicone on the front.
Took temps after a six minute run and they were batts 106, esc 108, motor 95. I have plenty of room to prop up but not sure what I should try next. Any suggestions much appreciated.
Here is a quick vid of the end of my first run. Keep this is mind this first time driving a tunnel, gotta little work to do.
Thanks to my Pop for filming.
Let me know what you guys think!
