RE: Torque comparsion between Nitro and Electric ?!
xism, a local hobby shop owners son was a Clod fanatic 10 years or so ago. Don't know if any of it remains or not but he built some pretty weird ones. Never got too carried away with power, but had some weird suspension setups, everything from beefed up Clod to fully independent each wheel driven by its own motor/gearbox. If any of it survives I will try and get you some pics. There might be an idea or two in the bunch for you.

And my 775 was loaded with a prop. It is propped to get the motor near max efficiency. Yet it still gets extremely hot after 6 minutes!

Boat prop 42mm carbon made by graupner. It has the most speed and runtime with the least amount of heat.
I don't know what the run time is without a load. It obviously would be longer.

i have listen to him, but you never listen to me.... u have disrespet me all the time.
but ryan u should get a longer runtime ... 42mm prop isnt much, i had a larger prop in my key west.
a 775 motor would be able to handle much larger size and still not run that hot

Actually some people get away with a 44mm graupner but for me it was just too hot. I have never heard of anything larger than a 44mm prop for a 775 motor sub-submerged drive.
