It requires water cooling for both the motor and the ESC unit. And it needs to run on something greater than 3 S. A 4 S is considered a modern day minimum. It usually drives a larger propeller. A larger propeller is much easier to break, especially when the water is shallow. Do consider to use a metal propeller to replace the stock plastic one. A plastic propeller is less heavy, but is also weaker in strength.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vvvvIMG_20210322_124005.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2998\" src=\"http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vvvvIMG_20210322_124005-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vvvvIMG_20210322_124005-1024x768.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vvvvIMG_20210322_124005-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vvvvIMG_20210322_124005-768x576.jpg 768w, http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vvvvIMG_20210322_124005-1246x935.jpg 1246w, http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vvvvIMG_20210322_124005-675x506.jpg 675w, http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vvvvIMG_20210322_124005-480x360.jpg 480w, http:\/\/rcpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/vvvvIMG_20210322_124005.jpg 1373w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vEJ58j9HKK8\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever wonder what is special about RC boat that runs on a 775 motor?
