RE: Unofficial

^ Looks great Ratrunner! I just ran both of my boats in the creek by my house today, charging batteries for round 2.

RE: Unofficial

Just PM aum-offshore (user name) and he'll get back to you, he gave me some lower shipping prices that weren't EMS. I can't afford to buy the kits right now, I'm not sure if I'm going to or not yet,...

RE: Unofficial

I *think* it is the rideplate, extended stator, impeller, shaft, watercooled motor mount and something else I know I'm forgetting. He's from Thailand.

RE: Unofficial

I just got a PM from aum-offshore that he's selling the upgrade kits now, $58. I wrote him back asking about shipping costs, he only offered EMS and it was $45! I might have to hold off on the kits...

RE: Unofficial

You can't use the stock receiver or servo, if you upgrade it you have to do it all at once. The stock ESC and Receiver are an integrated unit all in one and don't use standard plugs or anything. The...

It's not necessary to upgrade the jet drive, but everything else in the boat has to...

If anyone is looking for a decent 20mm water jacket, check out maxxprod.com, they shipped immediately and I had them in 2 days! My Monster boat is almost done, just need to mount the servo tonight....

RE: Unofficial

Don't do it, get two small 2S packs and parallel them together like I did above. It balances out the boat much better, I tried running a 4400 size lipo and put it sideways, boat wouldn't turn very...

RE: Unofficial

Haha yeah they get yelled at if they bite them, they mainly just like to chase it. My lab did paw it and send it down the creek upside down about 20 yards before I could catch it. I'm pretty happy...

RE: Unofficial

That would be awesome, I might take you up on that as well, finding couplers seems to be a bit challenging! Right now I have a 4400kV 20mm motor on 2S, it's not crazy but still plenty of fun. I am...

RE: Unofficial

Ah good call, I spaced that point. I saw one of your posts a ways back about a coupler you used too, that'll just bolt right up to the stock impeller shaft?

RE: Unofficial

Dang with the 5mm shaft? I was looking at those EDF outrunners I posted, they come with a 3mm and 2.3mm shaft so I have options. I'm thinking either the 2600 or 3000.

RE: Unofficial

Think I might try this one http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=10926

I see more and more outrunners in big boats, this might be the ticket.

RE: Unofficial

Well my 2nd motor is down in the Kal-Gard boat, turns out 4800kV doesn't last long on 3S! :D Was showing off and pop goes the rotor. Think I'll stick to 2S from now on or start hunting for a better...

RE: Unofficial

Not a problem at all, the NQD unit seems like it's decently durable if you don't suck up rocks with it lol. I figured $18 a piece was fair, now if we can just get the Aum Thai dude to sell the...

RE: Unofficial

3mm ID and 4.45mm OD. 4.5 would probably work fine and be a nice tight fit.

Great news but bummer about international restrictions...That's just dumb! I attempted to convert my other boat to the graupner impeller but I don't think it's going to work unless I can get a little...
