Default RE: The Unofficial Outboard FE Tunnel Thread

its fairly much the same size as a fiegao and that has sealed ends, cant go bigger with out redoing motor mount as i mounted every thing originally to suit the old hatch, new hatch only just fits over motor.the 8xl i run is a 2079kv so a 1415 1y 2200kv should give it a little more with out any extra amp draw plus have more torque, i can get 45-50 mph now depending on prop used.
a mate of mine runs one in a 1/8 serpent he converted, he runs 6s its totaly insane,he still runs the 2 speed and on its lowest gearing is still good for over 140 klmh.exceleration is unbelievable.
still trying to find a safe spot to open it up with a bit higher gearing and some timing advance.
