I like playing around with crazy combinations like that atoo and think it would be a nice build, but people (Me included) have smoked many a speed controller doing stuff like this. I understand why you didnt post what you were trying to do originally. Every time someone with a villain get on the forums its always the same comments about limitation on the hull etc etc. Realistically if all you want is 35mph or under it makes a great boat in rough waters and then you get the extra speed to boot.

Ideally to make this work you would want to know the rpm of the titans and then regear so its up 10 or 20 percent if thats even at all possible. Even then an 80A speed control would still be a minimum I would use, with watercooling.

FYI I just bought a pair of the great planes 600 motors for my villain. It was either that or 2 brushless motors with speed controls. To keep things in perspective the supervee motors are like 1900 rpm/ volt and its a 45 amp speed control on that one.
