A recent acquisition she goes like stink, complete with ken and barbs! I might have to up grade its speed controllers they generate a lot of heat even with auxiliary fans I have kept the auxiliary fans but have up graded the speed controllers to two big Mitronics sort I have now brought back in the water to assist with the heatI am going to introduce a folding mast as this one makes moving the boat difficult
Latest improvement is to reintroduce the water cooled ESC caused bit of a headache it’s previous owner had blocked the intake it improved the boat a lot

The Huntress has been my favourite motor boat ever since watching 'From Russia with Love'😉

This looks really good. Unusually for a model Huntsman, this one is more than big enough to accommodate two motors and shafts without difficulty.
You may explore smaller or finer props to reduce the build-up of heat on the motors and\or ESCs. Otherwise you may be left with retro fitting water cooling toat least the ESCs to avoid any likelihood of expensive brushless ESC burn-out or even a major fire! With best wishes. John 😊😮 ▲
