Yea, I was running the stock battery. After about 5 minutes though it got really hot. I dont think its made to pull more amps. Im gonna order up some elite 1500's to run. I dont really wanna go lipo its already hard to control. Cant imagine it with less weight. Hey you should come down to the river some time its pretty calm down their right under Beacon Hill.
The VR3 is a high-revving truck motor, meant to be geared down, so the Kv (rpm per volt) is probably too high for direct drive in a boat.
