Post by: Krishna on June 21, 2015, 07:05:39 am

a simple build.. based on my lake cat hull.. cut about 1 cms to down to attain a shallow hull.. then glued rubber foam tube that we used to seal split A/C duct pipes.. as it may shrik with NC and PU paints, i just coated the tubing with white glue.. then easy.. powered by a low profile brush less motor, she is so powerful, and weighs only 350 grams.. without battery.. and very responsive..

You have mastered the art of using brushless motors , do you prefer Out runners ?
What Batteries are you using ? LIPO or NiHm ?

yes.. sure.. brush less motors are so great.. and sure out runners as it can generate more torque, because of the leverage of the cup.. and so easy to make water cooling jackets.. great power to weight ratio.. strain free working at all throttle levels.. easy to install.. can even fix directly under water.. and in all batteries.. but mostly on LiPoly.. great power from little battery packs.. thank you..
