Srt10 how do you calculate its 4 x more power? Is there a chart to match a boat Hull and weight to certain size of brushless motor?
well a few things bro..
the Leopard motor is 1.5 times bigger in dia.
and almost 2 times longer
a bigger motor with the same kv = more torque and more HP
that little 28mm motor is rated to 640watts max and that would be for a very small car, like 16th or 12th scale..
this boat of yours is more of a .21 size nitro
so you need HP and torque.... no replacement for displacement
the bigger Leopard is rated at 2000watts, but I've seen them run higher without issues
I have the 4092 2080kv in my DF33 and it flat out hauls!!

Run it see how hot it gets. if you havnt ordered the esc yet get atleast a 60a it will give you more headroom. Which esc and motor?

My motor that i have is just a motor from a 1/10 short course truck..no real markings for me to know what brand just some random china motor.
Diy-pro, i did buy the esc unfortunately...i should have looked around on forums first to see what i should use[:@]

I did run my motor for a little while with the provided 35 amp fan cooled car esc. the motor stayed warm but the esc felt like it was gettiun way to hot around 65c i think

you may be fine if you dont put too large of a prop on it. You have a cooling jacket for the motor?

Found this >>> http://www.himodel.com/electric/2080...F540-3650.htmlThis ones rated at 38 amps Youll probably be fine just check the temps

How are you guys mounting these big motors? Also how do mount my packs outside the radio box? Just stick on Velcro? I'm running the desperado by the way.

Hi there, to be honest I haven't done anything with this project but for a mount make your own if you can. The desperado if I'm right has a flex cable therefore you have better options for motors. I found with the outlaw that the straight shaft proved to be a problem in mounting. What are the deminsions from the boat hull bottom to the canopy?

I don't think I would ever be able to make my own. Could I just use the blackjack and miss Geico mount?
Thanks

I guess you could you would have to figure out a way to raise the mount up in order to mount a motor to it. Thats simple though, a wood block would do the job im sure. just make sure its glued down good[8D]

Your gunna be running way to hot with that motor. Go back to the first page if you haven't already, there's a discussion about putting a 28mm I runner in there....it's not the same

Two guys at our club had bought one of these each some time ago & because of the angle of the shaft they ran too wet no matter where they put the batteries.
So out came all the innards & drive shaft.
In went a 3674 2200kv turnigy motor and a 120A ESC with a strut & flex drive.
With a 437/3 prop they are damn fast. With a 440/3 they are ballistic. with cool electrics & a decent run time on a single 5000mah 4s pack.
srt10 is spot on with the motor choice.

For those still wanting to run a 28mm motor on 3s in this boat. I can recommend this motor with a 440/3 or a 442 two blade.

I've had it in a 25" bling rocket & it is a wee little beastie of a motor. I even ran it on 4s with a 437/3 prop. No problems but you will need a 120A ESC at least. I popped an 80A ESC with it. It easily puts out the 1000w that it states.

Cheers.
Paul.

Hi HiBob.
We just usually stick velcro on the batteries & in the hull.

Where in Australia are you. Not in Brizzy by any chance are you.
