Hi Renew I assume you are using 2.4Ghz radio so providing the aerial(s) are always above the waterline and higher than your motor/Esc interference should not be a problem now you have moved the rx away to the back. Make sure all your signal wire is well clear of any high current battery wires. It's possible you have a faulty (dirty contacts) rudder servo that is causing the rx problems. If your sailing waters are heavily weeded then that might be the problem. Hopefully the weather will improve and you can test further Dave976

I've had similar problems with 2 boats I was given, both were cured by repositioning the receiver and antenna. All my boats run on sla's or nicads even with brushless motors. Cheers Colin.

Hello, drive shaft is both side balbearings, I am running 4s with 35mm prop, esc is 70A. Test in bathtub with amp meter is not running above 25/30A then itโs not cutting. Only On open water, I think itโs more a problem with receiver interruption.

Hi renew Coming along nicely. If your Esc is cutting out I suggest you purchase a wattmeter to measure the current/watts used as this may be the cause of the cut out. The drive chain should be free to rotate with no binding and the bearings lubricated. Looking at an earlier post I see the prop has a lock washer but does not butt up to the prop shaft. At the other end I cannot see a bearing and wonder if this may be your problem. NYou have not said what Esc or battery voltage you are using but if it exceeds the max design voltage for the Esc it will shut down to protect its self. Hope you manage to resolve whatever is causing the overheating. dave976

I really admire the finish you achieved on the hull. Superb. I am currently trying to get a similar hull completed but the mess left from gluing the strakes on will take days to remove. Good luck with the superstructure and maiden voyage, and be sure to show us the finished boat on the water.๐
