Don't be shocked if we get no updates until they're done.
What usually happens at these is the guys running the show go home each night completely baked and are hugg'n pillows asap. It's kinda like being on weekend binder in Vegas. You're not sure what day it is, you're dehydrated, and you can't find your pants.
Yet another reason that Limited is no longer a "cheap" beginner's class. Not only do you have to keep replacing motors, but you DNF the heat when the motor goes boom.....

Wow you guy's must not be using Dave Newlands hold your thumb on the auqucraft motor tuning guide. Ever since I have started using this I have not burned one up.

Then prop down and finish heats.
People need to stop pushing them beyond what they were designed for, plain and simple.
No matter what motor you decide to "spec", people will continue to abuse them untill the die...its human nature, and then its always the motors (manufactuers) fault.
They were designed to push a UL1 to about 40mph so yeah every race boat on the water is pushing them way beyond their intended design point.
Yes, guys are going to push any motor until it bursts.
Right now if you don't like the 2030 quality or it's inconsistent from one to the next you can.............go the store and buy the same one again. Cross your fingers that it's not just like the last one, or the first one, or the one from mid may, or the one on that pallet from the fall. But the ones from August were stellar. Take care of that one.
If I buy a Turnigy 36mmx60mm or so and the quality sucks or they are inconsistent from motor to motor I can choose not to buy more of them. I can buy a TP or a Leopard or or an SSS or what ever fits the dims.
This potential change isn't just about the quality though. It's about availability and the fact that we are still catering to one or two manufacturers. We got it wrong. It's held up for a while but we got it wrong. Should have been dims from the start. I got it wrong.
Plus, the RTR's are evolving and even vanishing. Brand new boats are showing up but not with motors from our beloved motor list so......no place to race unless the brand new guy changes his boat.
New guy shows up and wants to get into racing. He has basically three legal options. UL1, Lucas, or a Revolt. I don't think PB has a boat with a legal motor at this very moment.
"But I just bought this slick Pursuit from Hobbyking. Look it's beautiful."
"Oh well their motor is illegal. Rip the motor out and put this cheaper POS in it and it will be legal."
"mmmmmmkay. Think I'll just play with my boat the way it is."
