Wow thanks very much for the detailed info and video! As soon as I can figure out how to post video and photos I will share my build.
Sorry for all the questions. Just like racing touring cars Setup is everything. I can see how having a very strong motor mount helps. The pounding of the ocean waves is stressful and the weakest link may be the motor mount. Im going to use lipo's I use in my xray touring car. I have a few of them. They are 7.2 volt. The 3650 will be one of the motors I will buy. I called hobbypartz and they said its close to the 540 stock motors the kit came with. Hows the cooling working? We have a temp gun and measure the temp when the cars come off the track. Or just feel the motor. Its the motor cool to the touch? Cool motors run faster and run longer. Well thanks again guys!
