    Default Revolt on 6s

    Bought a used Revolt awhile ago that had been damaged and missing parts.Put the 1800 kv motor back in it with a 3/16 cable and no liner. Added some glass to the inside nose for weight, ran a M445 prop on 6s and got 53 mph everytime I ran it today.The temps stayed around 105 all day long.

    I am using the 1800kv aquacraft motor with a seaking 120 esc. I measured a 2 oz. cup of rosin [epoxy works better] and poured in the nose for weight. Running a M445 prop. I also added a 3/16 flex cable with no liner and a peice of cooling tubing on the stuffing tube to help keep the water out.

    I have the seaking 120 esc and the prop but I am waiting for a prop balancer before I try the prop. Cheers.

    Been running 55 mph with some adjustments. Getting ready to put a Dynamite 6 pole 2000kv in her.

    i wouldnt . your already running better then that 6pole 2000 will get you . thats the motor they use in the blackjack 29 v3 . it runs hot on 6s .if your running 55 and coming in cool with that aquacraft motor i would stick with that .
    thats been my experience with the motor .
    maybe the revolt is lighter so that might be in your favor .but that motor in my bj29v3 runs kinda hot .

    Instead of the Dynamite 6 pole 2000kv, I went with a 180 ESC and a Leopard 4082 1600kv I had laying around.

    Ran the Revolt with the Leopard 4082 1600kv, 180 esc and a m445 prop. 59.4 MPH and can do turns wide open. Have to ease on the throttle tho.20170622_152932.jpg
