RE: Super Tune Your Super Vee 27

You can get the Garmin 201 refurbished on ebay or Amazon shipped conus for about $80.00-$100.00. The 201 uses a lipo battery so it doesn't lose it's charge due to non use.;)

RE: Super Tune Your Super Vee 27

Well, I accidently connected two 4s Emoli Lipo in series instead of parallel and the 28+ volts cooked the Esc but no damage to the motor so I think voltage does matter. Think voltage-power and...

RE: Super Tune Your Super Vee 27

Tks Sting,

I wonder why Hobbico would tell me something different if the ESC is the same. The Aquacraft version has been waterproofed and is $10.00 cheaper.
