What Big boat and motor for 400A ESC

[Gilbert Pun]

Just got a Waterproof Marine 400A ESC, it is claim to be capable of 4- 22 Cells, and looking at handling well over 80volts, for trial.

Any suggestions for suitable big boat and right set up for such ESC.

Convert any gas size boat to FE and use something like a Castle 2028 to start with. Don't know anything about those controllers, so before you risk spending several $k on the rest of the power system, try something cheap first. I would also recommend 2 parallel batteries.

My first trial using a SSS56104 790Kv motor with 18cells on a AC Lazer, the boat performed well and very fast, after about 8 laps and return home safe and sound.

No burnt parts nor any strange smell, the temperature of motor is 94.5 degrees Centigrade, batteries and ESC at 56 degrees, as including batteries all have water cool.

Testing on a very small stretch piece of water filled with seaweeds and garbage, and run on 60% speed.
