I'm equally guilty but as American we always talk all this ying yang about Chinese quality and sometimes the quality is low but in the case of Dee in Hong Kong it is not. I don't know what material Dee uses but ETTI hardware has always been some of the best hardware you can get. I wish they made hardware for the really big boats and riggers because the quality is second to none. You never need to break a single edge. It appears apparent in their tool paths because every iota of the items AWAYS have perfect and uniform broken edges. The material is also different grade of Aluminum than you generally see . It is lighter , stronger , and seems to machine to a better finish. I'll have to ask Dee what he using but it is of a very high quality. It was much better than that of the Sweeds at BB. That's the truth directly from what I have in my hands here. I needed to clean up the BB hardware quite a bit.

Here are photos on the scale that show the difference in weight from standard electrolytics versus hybrid caps. The 2 100 volt barrels like you see typical only give you 660uf while the hybrid bank gives you 4700 uf. The 10 px was damaged and had a cracked LCD . Its back now and ready to go. Were getting close..... but I still have to fully configure XLX2 & 2028 telemetry and then the Futaba onboard gyro.

Hi,
The 1721 2400 Kv will be sent back to castle. There is no way this one I have in hand does 90,000 rpm. I tested it today on 8s and It is so out of balance at wot im scared to run it long there. I think ill be buying a Neu 1539. Out the box a motor should be smooth as silk at wot. I opened it up and it was nothing that stood out. There was not any trash in the gap. The rotor lost its balance somehow is all I can figure. The balance tabs were in place.
Castle Drag motors aren't covered under warranty but I just called and since I have not run it in a model they said they will look at it and if it's defective they will cover it.
Regards
Hubert

Again, Here is 2,000,000 uf at 6s lipo or 1,000,000 uf of INSANE capacitance at 12s lipo to compliment the 250C SMC Drag cells.😮 They are about the size and weight of a typical LiFe rx pack. I wired them up just like a pair of saddle packs with 8 AWG castle cable and 6.5 connectors. They have enough capacity to run the inverter without a battery for a short period of time. In short durations they can deliver quite a bit of amperage. This is a long way from the 2000 uf you get from castle in a form factor just slightly larger than their electrolytic cap bank..For cooling with water one of my ideas is to glue a copper strip with tubing soldered to it to the bottom of the exposed barrels with a thermally conductive adhesive or thermal pad. The diagram explains it well. Some may find it overkill but I feel this is critical because the lithium supercaps don't like to be above 70C* you don't want to run into any problems or introduce a short with this amount of current surging through the boat . Id feel a a little better with the investment If I know I'm at least trying to cool them.

You could probably pull off dual 8mm cable into the AMASS SH 8.0 connector but I didn't do that . I'm going to add 8 awg leads finished with castle 6.5mm connectors soldered right into the XLX2 battery input cables so the super caps or any other caps or auxiliary off main power can just plug in . This will also make it easy for use to log the before and after effects of the capacitance on ripple and voltage sag. Once everything is mounted in place maybe I can shorten some of the cables, but I want to maintain modularity so I can interchange all this with other boats setups etc. I'm not worried about voltage drop . I should be stout enough on delivery for whatever. The XLX2 and the HYDRA versions do have the built in spark arrestors.🙏
Thanks for your continued interest in my Insane mono. The swimming pool in Bayern doesn't have enough room Borat. 😜

Wie viele Platten haben Sie entfernt? Sieht so aus, als ob der Stator 50X70 war, was um weitere 5020 mehr Eisen ist als Ihr 5050. Die zusätzliche Leistung, die der 2028 im Vergleich hat, ist offensichtlich. Mit dem großen Monodraht, wie viel Füllung Sie verloren haben, können Sie den ungenutzten Platz dort sehen. Nicht gut für eine optimale Wärmeleitfähigkeit.

I'm going to change a few things around. I'll pull the .125 wire drive out and install a .250 flex shaft for the power trim. I plan to lock a flat ride attitude with a Futaba gyro on the 10PX. I 'm going to start with the 2028 castle drag motor but may switch to something in the 90-100K rpm range. I picked the strut up off ebay for $67.00 . There only 1 or two left according to promise hobby. That's a really good deal for what is here in my opinion.

Hi,
I got it. Its nice my people.... Its smooth as silk. Looks like they have Delrin sleeves on the crank shaft Its definitely worth what it cost. A static stinger cost that. ill add more photos. I'm going to build the tray from carbon fiber plate. from there Ill lay out the drive electronics and wiring. The servo for this is already in place in the servo box. I plan to sleeve the pushrods for it and the rudder with carbon fiber tubing. we will have to see how it goes..
Thanks for your time and patience,
Hubert

You can contact me and let me know when you and your friend in NC would like to meet me and the boats. The best way to see it is in person beside yours. In fact I have embedded GPS with a 10Px so you can simply post your 50 inch monos recorded speed so we can compare. If you are truly interested I am too in your boats. Please post your surface piercing monos.
Thanks Hubert

I'm going to back it up with a Neumotors 1545 which is a tad less than 90,000 RPM. I need a new stuffing box and a 1/4 in flex shaft ground to 3/16th of an inch.

Out of stock at OSE. So I purchase this one from a us distributor off ebay. It is also lighter. I don't want to run it off receiver power so I'm actually going to buy a cheap brushed DC controller for variable control. In a 555 based servo saver you can replace the pot with a thermistor and create a thermostat that will turn on the pump at user set temp. You could also use an op amp ADC and some LED's and create a lit exit stream based on temperature. I have the circuit example buried away in old college material.Originally posted by Clugh View PostWhat im considering is a tec cooler on the block to cool the incoming water then circulate it.
@ Ralph heres a pump run by the TX that uses a 28x60mm motor and here is the flow. I haven't calculated it but I dont think that will dissipate the kind of heat generated in a SAW run but it may stabilize things if the boat is stopped or just sitting in the water after a run. To be fair real calculations need to be made. Ill know more after I consult with Ferrotec No matter to use it in conjunction
with a prop blast or a hull mounted water pickup will need a check valve inline somewhere to make it work correctly as a supplemental active cooling water source .
Here are the spec on the pump
Voltage from 3 to 6 volts
- Voltage: 3 V Pumping flow: 1.1L / one minute Pumping flow: 300ml / one minute
- Voltage: 6 V Pumping flow: 1.8L / one minute Pumping flow: 600ml / one minute
- Pump & motor length: 60mm
- Pump & motor length including the tubing fittings: 72mm
- Diameter: 28mm
- Wire length: 200mm
- Weight: 72 grams
Is it worth its weight in wattage dissipation? calculations are needed. And again Christian is going to integrate a small GDPDP enuf to fit inside the outrunner and flow enuf of what from what source in the plane? It would have to be closed loop with an effective heat exchanger. A radiator with a fan so to speak. id like to see the entirfe concept laid out not just the motor cross section. But anyhow you see what you have here in flow and the size of the pump. Is it feasible in a 20kW plane pulling over a half a horse in waste..?

Let you pump dumping here for a min to get an idea of flow if it is not stated. Im kinda lost with the pump rating on OSE I see 1.8L min which would be almost a 2 liter bottle in a min. Thats good but the it say flow 600ml/minute so forget all the nonsense if you get a battery and current clamp you can determine the draw and what it flow in a min. If you could flow 6 liters in 3 min that might work.
OSE pump rating????
Voltage from 3 to 6 volts
- Voltage: 3 V Pumping flow: 1.1L / one minute Pumping flow: 300ml / one minute
- Voltage: 6 V Pumping flow: 1.8L / one minute Pumping flow: 600ml / one minute
