Hi there,
first post for me but I already got lots of precious info from the forum.
I recently got the Holy Smoke out of my MG29.
After a 3 hours wait for the boat to come at hand distance by the only force of the water current and the wind, It confirmed my thought : burned ESC.
I ran on stock setup with an Octura X642 propeller. I think I put the propeller line too deep in the water which drawn too much amps for the poor stock esc (60A) to stay "cool"
I have now got a new 120 Amp esc and cleaned the mess inside the hull.
Before rebuilding the MG, I wondered if there was an optimal watercooling tubing setup to follow to ensure best cooling efficiency, i.e. : put Esc or motor first?, how to prevent tubing from squeezing, do you choose shortest paths, ...
I initially thought at a dual water pick-up, but it seems a bit of an overkill for my config (4S, not racing) and require hull or rudder modding. So if you have any good advice to optimize water-cooling with one single line, I would be happy to learn.
Best,
Benoit
