Hey,

Take a look at following build thread. APS 6384 100kV motor was successful for following data :

> Hi to everyone, I would like to add motor into my inflatable 12,6ft SUP (13kg + 80kg me) to be mostly used on lakes, rivers, potentially sea and that would give me reasonable speed (around 20km/h if possible) My total budget is limited to...

> I can report success reaching desired 20 kmph. Upping motor current max to 150A allowed me to draw 77A max (at least that´s the reading on VX2 remote) which gave me 20 kmph.

> Really appreciate everybody’s help. Feels like flying, almost 🙂 And while standing it even brings tiny bit of adrenaline. When riding all my hopes are vested into concom´s preservative abilities to protect my remote precious. I had few dives and so far so good. Just my daughter is increasingly curious what is the function of that tiny empty tip of remote´s water protection 😃

You can certainly hit 20kmh+ just need higher pitch prop and / or higher voltage battery. If you are willing to spend hours on this you’ll be just fine. As of the battery, I would recommend something like @Flightjunkie did. I made a variant of this too 😉

I’d get a 6384 motor with 120-130kV.

As for the battery, depends on what you are looking for. LiPo / Liion, etc
