Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Water Models / January 2004Electric boat ESC?
Hi -- I have a customer who has an electric R/C boat and an Airtronics radio -- he wants to get an electronic speed control (forward only), and I'm afraid I simply don't know enough about the subject to help him out. Any suggestions? Bart Brown Wings 'N Wheels Hobbies wingswheels@sbcglobal.net There is not enough info; boat size, how big is motor, # of cells whic will reflect on motor size. Here goes www.rc-hydros.com is web site fo Andy Kunz. Andy's esc are waterproof and watercooled and the price fo a 60 amp is $75.00. These esc's are bullet proof, i have 2 of the without bec which means the esc plugs directly into receiver with jus 2 of 3 females and you use 9-volt battery for juice. There is one othe item you should ask, does customer want reverse? If so you do not nee a Schotty diode on motor but if reverse is needed you cannot use diode. Now a boat needs an esc which is waterproof and cooled and ca esc get wet-- GOOD-BYE plus are more expensive.

I think I paid around $75 from Hobby Lobby when I was on hols in U.S.A. last summer. -- wetlectricks ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted from the RCGroups.com Discussion Forums.
