Hi Leaky,

I will not be able to do anything more to the boats until after Christmas, but with the proven motor and ESC combo it currently has fitted, it will run OK  - but I do have the use of a bluetooth programming device that I will still try as the smaller ESC is a lot neater fit in the boat and it should be more than adequate for the size of motor that I will most likely be using.

Once the boat is running I will be able to see how the M4 prop shaft holds up.  I would usually choose to fit an M5 prop shaft, but this boat was started some time ago and if I was doing it again I would definitely fit the bigger dia. shaft.

After Christmas I will complete the painting and hope to get the boat on the water in the New Year.

Merry Christmas!

Bob.

Hi Bob
have you been able to sort the speed issue with the new ESC?

Hi Pete,

I have not been to the lake since fitting the replacement ESC, but I know it will work OK.

At the moment, I am currently changing the colour scheme and will be running the boat in its new colours this season.

I'm sure it'll be sorted this time and perform how you want it to.
Will be good to see you running it again sometime.
