How to put on new motors

[Bob Lucas]

I just got a new rc boat called the "triton 5" and i was just wondering if ne1 else has this boat and if they can tell me how to put duel magnetic mayhems on it. It has that gear box on it and i was just wondering if i need to buy ne thing else besides the magnetic mayhem motors. Thx a lot guyz.

Bob

if you put in Magnetic m's replace the plug and wire with Deans

Keep an eye on the MSC too, It may not handle the amp draw

Thx andrew but do u know if there is any other motor i can replace the 550 stocks with? I dun want to reck my msc. Thx alot!

Bob,

any motor with more power output will draw more current. The stock controller is not designed for high current

There are several things you may want to do prior to putting in a new motor.

eg ride plates on the sponsons; buy cell packs of CP1700's the lighter weight improves run time and speed; new metal prop X645; water cool the motors; 2 cells to the cell packs, so you run a total of 14; bearings in the driveline;

These changes will give you a faster running. On the other hand - ditch the MSC and get an ESC and the two new motors.

Why not try a 700 size motor in that boat? It should move pretty well on that motor!
