Hobbywing Seaking 60A

Anyone any experience of the Hobbywing Seaking watercooled 60A ESC

Came in a boat of mine and I understand it can use Lipo or NiMh batteries

The info leaflet doesnt say how to change between the two types though

Both types will work fine. ESC have low voltage cut offs for lipos but I tend to turn them off as they tend to cry wolf and shut down your boat at inopportune times. The easy way to change the settings is with a programming card.

Not generic, but a specific card to certain types of Hobbywing ESCs, this is one on ebay currently:
