CYBERTXT: Seehuusen, I obviously don't know you, but before siding with these guys, you might seriously want to review my product reviews by many, many, many REAL racers who have tested these kits, and who helped put their knowledge into them.


Mate, I don't know you either, but I'm happy to accept your knowledge in this field, no problems what so ever
I actually tried to log on to intlwaters.com to see some of your handy work, as I like the idea of a hydro and hoped to get a few ideas
I'm really keen on building a hydro with one of those mini-V8 engines in it (not sure of size yet), but the Renault design lends itself a bit to the idea I reckon

BTW, I purely commented on the right to post your thoughts on any media, which is the same as your right to defend your work... Vasek does have every right to complain, the plans didn't live up to his expectations, who is at fault is a different matter, and I really don't care
Besides it was the ignorant political comment that triggered me to write something in first place (which I see you have removed, thanks)

Status: offline 		hey guys, i need some help with the ESC setup:

a) what are those two free wires from the harness for?

b) how to connect the water cooling jacket? which 2 outlets are the INN & OUT and how to interconnect the rest of them? does it matter?

thanks v.

the water pipes dont matter what way you connect as long as all tubes are used you may need the inlet and exit to be at one end to be a better fit in your boat

you will need a BEC or RX battery for that ESC most speed controllers over 6s dont have a built in BEC

Status: offline 		Thanks Phil, I have a 1100 LiFe foe the Rx. It should be enough and it's super light.

How do you program the ESC? is it worth getting the USB linker for it?

most default setting are ready to go , you could just set your throttle range and "plug & play" the cell count , timing, LVCO are set in auto default mode from the factory
