    Question dual water intake position?

    any ideas where the best place to mount a Traxxas dual water intake on the bottom of a UL-1? Would like to run separate water lines to and from Esc and also motor water jacket using rudder pick up and the hull mounted pick up. Should it be down by transom, in front of prop shaft? Somewhere else, or is it a waste of time? Hoping to bring down temp of motor a bit.
    Thanks

    The water intake I'm wanting to use is the OSE-80405.

    that would be tough on a ul-1. Its normally meant to be used near the transom. Why did you need an extra pickup in the ul1?

    Well at the time I ordered the pickup I was having an overheating problem which I fixed, now I have a extra pickup that I thought could use and maybe it would help cooling the motor better. Knowing that the transom on a hydro doesn't touch the water much maybe a dual pickup rudder might work better? Thanks Rod
