It’s just been launched so no hindsight but would you have an opinion about the new HI200 75V High Current 200A ESC based on Vesc with water cooling enclosure ?
I have one of the APD 200F3 but couldn’t find the time to test it properly since I am sticking with the Trampa 75/300 for now. I’ll report back when I get the time to.
Unfortunaltely I don’t. I am not an ESC expert. There are way more experienced users here that migh help. I’m just giving my opinion on some of the brands I know, it might help someone who knows
Your opinion didn’t go unheard either… I will certainly consider the top-end brands when I get going. Besides why spend $600 on a motor, $800 on a battery, and yet only $200 on an esc.
This is something that is undermined very often! For an efoil/jetsurf project, I believe that your creation will only be as performing as its weakest component! I believe you should always try to align the quality level of all your different components. At least that’s what I realized from my personal experience!
I have the exact same setup. Even the ugly red board. The rig with me 130kg could never come to plane, so max 15km/h waterplow. My son at 25kg did come up to about 40km/h (not full gas).
I run it with 15s19s Liion instead of the 12S tattus or 14s SLS Lipos recommended. That might have been the problem as I could not push more than 170A (10kW).
For some-one weighing less than 80kg and having access to Big Lipos, this could be close to 50km/h.
Anyways as previously stated I’m selling the MHZ setup at 50% of new cost. Asking 2000€ excl battery and remote. Location south sweden.

Similar setup like your first build @Kian
Pretty “crude” build but KISS and after all it works.
What do you think how fast he is going?
In his previous videos he mentioned in the 40’s KM.
I believe him. I reach with my 6S 30 km. He is on 12S.
Just wait for my next build. It will be faster and on 12S too
