Hi Peter - sorry for the delay in replying, only just returned to the site.

Been going through my Fairey drawings and associated magazines. I've got some more drawing to do on the computer! I do enjoy it though.

Just checked my emails and nothing has come through.

I have successfully used Tornado Thumper Outrunners in some of my bigger boats specifically the 4260/06. I use them with Fusion Hawk 60A electronic speed controllers.

Never had any worries about the need to water cool either the motor or speed controller and have found them to be pretty reliable. Tend to use them as standard set up nowadays.

Hello Shaun


I have installed a 4260/06 Tornado 500 KV 900W, running on 3S Lipos, in my newly completed AeroKits Swordsman (33 inches long), mainly on what you said about that motor.


Because of lockdown I have not had chance to sail Swordsman yet. The Topic was: Sea Queen 46" - power units. You saiid you'd used the motor on some of your bigger boats. Did that include a 46" Sea Queen? I'm just trying to estimate if the motor should be powerful enough on 3S Lipos, or if I need to go to 6S Lipos.


I've only just joined Mayhem. If you would like to see my Swordsman, here's a link:https://www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=65518.new#new
My articles are towards the end of page 14
