The cable used is LAPP ÖLFLEX Classic 400P 3G2.5 PUR.

This is the same cable specification used by Foil Drive, selected for its flexibility, abrasion resistance, and suitability for high-current mobile applications.

The 3-pin connector was designed by another forum member, JonathanC, who has the 3D print files available. If you message him directly, he should be able to share the files and offer guidance on the build.

If you need any additional information on parts selection, wiring, or VESC programming, just ask — I’m happy to help.

The setup uses a Flipsky 6384 motor paired with the V5 remote for control.

The standard Flipsky 2-blade propeller works well as a starting point, but I’ve since upgraded to a Kparts Watersports 3-blade aluminium prop, which provides noticeably improved thrust and smoother low-speed response.
