Why not just flip the mast clamp and put a cone on the prop?
Is in’t actually approximately 13 AWG?
You are right. I confused the diameter and the area.

I changed all my phase cable from LMT 6mm to XT150 with hangloose style connector. The XT150 is longer and “physically stronger”. With the LMT I had issues after multiple usage. Once I have even sparks in the LMT connectors because the male part got bended after multiple usage.
XT150 feels very good.

New 27mm high build with VESC HarryM BWESC 220.
I tested it with my small tow and big battery for >1h full load.
Very happy with the HarryM BWESC 220. But the battery got so hot that the BMS turned off…

Nice, the esc is cooled how?
Is that thermal tape from aliexpress ? I think I ordered the same
Please share a screenshot of the “Current” tab in Vesc Tools. Thank you.
The motor current could be less in tow setup.
But for assist 125A are perfect to get on my spitfire 840 with my small board.
Cooling:
- tow setup: water flowing over it, see pics
- assist gen2 setup or efoil: mast
- assist backpack: mounted outside

Thnx
I can’t take off with this controller. I’ve tried many settings, all above 130A. Spitfire 900, belt assist.
What voltage config do you have?
I had at first reduced power caused by voltage drop. Running on 12s2p with molice 42 and 30cm awg8 wires.
I adapted to:
I use standard values for 12s - 40.8 and 37.2 Does this mean the voltage drops are too high?
I have not checked yet where/why the voltage dropped that much. But it caused the Vesc to limit phase amps. What phase amps do you really reach at full load?
To be honest, I haven’t been keeping any logs. I was planning to solder a Vesс Express to the CAN bus, but I never found the time.
I’ll try changing the limits.
