Questions & Answers
Real questions from real customers. Why not ask your own?
Will a 1500 kv motor power a 800 mm boat with a 40mm 2 bladed prop ??
Tim Walter / 24th June 2019

It's always difficult to recommend on spec built models, but yes - that should be somewhere close.

Can this be used for eboards
Daniel Basini / 7th June 2017

These are designed for model planes, so we can't really advise on suitability for other applications sorry.
