Hello,
I removed the Flipsky 70165 from my boogie pod after 10 sessions and I found each phase wire a bit thicker (1mm more in diameter) and softer on the section submerged. The 4th small white wire on the picture is the temp sensor I cut & waterproofed (heatshrink + dual component epoxy)
Inside wires I feel like the electric cables are not as tidy as the remaining clean section which was inside the waterproof box.
I tested their resistance with a cheap multimeter and got 0.5 ohm between phases. Same resistance motor submerged and no bubble when I put motor in the bath.
I put some magic gel in the pod to avoid water ingress inside
The motor still runs well but I’m surprised with wire condition. The motor is almost new, never opened.
What do you guys think about this thicker phase wires ? Water ingress ? Magic gel incompatibility ? Too much heat ?
Thanks for your input 
From the factory, Flipsky seems to fill the motor with some kind of oil. Ive heard that some kids of oil can make the cables become thicker, but this does seem very fast.
Regarding the magic gel, where did you put this?
I had a discussion on the Flipsky chat with a person who told me that there was no oil inside so I supposed it was seawater.
I decided to dismantle totally the motor. And in fact you were more right than this useless chat. There is oil inside the motor so it’s probably oil which climbed into cables.
Result of this useless job: 2 maintaining alen screws seized on the front cap. The nyloc compound used is red, too strong for this screw size.
Interesting. But I wonder, did you have any issues? Cables getting thicker should not be a massive issue, right? Basically only providing extra sealing, I suppose.
Some questions from my end…
How is the temp sensor mounted, is it within the copper? And, that blue stuff, is that from the fsctory?
Small tip, next time when opening a motor, use some heat on the screws, I agree, those screws break really easily wij the red loctite. Wrong choice from their end.
I had no issue but as the chat told me there was no oil inside, the other reason for liquid inside would only been seawater and I could hear it.
I didn’t want to lose 400 euros too quickly.
Blue paste is from Flipsky
For the hall sensor inside the motor I did not pay attention. The only thing I can say is the heatshrink + dual component epoxy is good for waterproofing it’s end.
Now let’s mount it back on the pod and cross the fingers for waterproofness

Hope you manage to put it back together nicely. Just checking, what kind of propellor are you running on your boogie?
Cool. How is it performing in regards to speed?
My only reference is a dual motor tow dinghy with foildrive clone propellers and it’s about the same top speed. It’s very good for my purpose for the moment
