Post by: surfer71 on November 13, 2018, 09:38:56 pm

Hi Guys.. not sure if folk remembered but I saved a Damas heading to the tip if not sold on local selling site..


painted it up rather nice in the spray shop.. grown men leaving Mercedes and BMW's to one side to help spray paint a £30 tip boat LOL !!!


but the results are great so far.. ( DON'T "xxxxx" IT UP NOW!! ) I hear my self saying..


so ...... motors wise I have the wise words of the component man Iann to hand there and that is looking solved to me.. roughly 1000 KV brushless motors x 2 and 20amp ESC's on lipos'


sorted but LIGHT!! eps nagivation lights.. how and where have you fitted yours?


I have green and red to fit


some interiors lights


I am about to order some deck lights from Mastman and lights


plus I might try that neat trick of fiber optic LED ( plastic strip basicly )


So show me your pics please and any advice..
thanks


Mark

20A ESC's ? What size motors are you using as my Dauntless with two 3542 1000Kv brushless outrunners needs 50A ESC's.? It's a big boat and you need this sort of power to obtain a realistic scale top speed.
