Motor suggestions, please........

[Patrick]

I am scratch building a 1/12 scale Pay n Pak from G. Finlay plans and am considering motor options. Not a serious racer, but I would like a motor that is suitable for it. I was thinking of the Aquacraft 36-56-2230 kv motor, but there must be something better out there for $80.
Thanks

All depends on what you will doing with the boat............running courses, sport running..................WOT runs with all the speed you can muster etc........... What voltage you runnin?

My club runs Limited sport Hydro and 1/12 scale hydro with a 4S lipo and 2030kv max. These are the only rules. This is not a cut throat group. We just race for the fun of it.

So racing for fun, thats my favorite as well. Can you have any size motor.......3665, 3674 etc?

[Patrick]

I think longer is ok. 2030kv is the only restriction.

I'd throw this 1900kv in it, gonna be able to spin some serious prop in that hull with the extra length(74mm)
