There are many motors that would meet you needs. I've been wanting to convert a boat to electric with a high power motor such as this:...
Well going back to the roots of this thread, a s28-400 magmotor with 8 inch prop direct drive i've now realized is not realistic. Even a 5 inch...
Rick, Yea I remember you mentioning that before, do you have any better pictures of your design? Based on what I see it doesn't seem to complex,...
Rick, The inflatable boat is horrible... it is NOT hard bottom and it's hard to determine how much negative impact it could have on...
Well I tested the S28-400 motor on the lake with the inflatable boat. I used my dewalt 36 volt (which is really 33 volt) battery pack. I have...
Well I took out my inflatable boat today, this is kinda unrelated to my s28 motor, well I had planned on testing it but was to difficult. The...
Where can you buy that motor you have listed? The other motors in the picture look like AXI's, so does the big one a little bit, except for it's...
Check out this motor: http://www.icare-rc.com/plettenberg_predator.htm They claim an unbelievable 10kw from that, granted, in an RC airplane...
Joe, Yea, I am concerned with thermal issues, I was hoping water cooling would be more effective but you said that didn't seem to help with...
I decided to make the trolling motor prop fit onto my 3/4" shaft and test it out to see what kind of performance it has. I did testing at 24...
Yea, the ammeter I linked to is alright, the Clamp On you listed before is still nicer, has a higher amp limit, but it 4 times as costly. for $60...
Oh yea, about the swirrler comment on the small pools, yes I realized this and the tests where done quickly before that occured, once the water...
Rick, Unfortunatly for water proofing needs, I sealed the entire thing shut and can't open it quickly afterwards to feel for things that are...
Well I finally did some testing with the ammeter, interesting results. I tested the unit out of the water to determine how much of the power is...
ASM, Well, I do have an ammeter which I haven't officially used yet, I showed a link earlier I think, it's this one:...
I actually have a style 2 (Part # 9281K71) which I bought a long time ago and actually forgot I had eheh. I just pulled it out and now realize it...
I know it's been a while since my last post here, but wanted to get some more advice/information on this subject. For my project I went ahead...
Rick, I see the propeller you're talking about, it almost seems to be to be halfway between a propeller and an impeller. I almost thought about...
Well I did goto the lake and do some more tests... I had a few issues with the motor controller but was still able to do some adequate tests. I...
Well the design speed is not 6 knots, more like 15 knots, if 4000rpm is the "butter zone" with with magmotor then a 5 inch prop with 13% prop...
