ORIGINAL: nick 30

heres my proposed setup (whats already installed)

180a turnigy marine esc
feiga 8XL
3/16th strudder setup
50mm prop ?? (still dialing in for right prop size)

i have 2x 3s, 3800mah, 20C batts (30C burst) would i fry these batts in that setup ???
for starters you don't want to run 6s on that motor specially with a 50mm prop! [:-]
I don't think the system will last 30sec
and the batteries will not keep up, you could try 3s in parallel that would give you 144amps cont
but the rpm would be very slow of only about 23,000rpm
4s would work and with a 42mm and possibly bigger prop, but not to much bigger depending on the size of the hull
2p is two packs 1p is a single pack
so 3s in parallel is 3s2p
