Included:
1 x Foil Drive v2 Motor Cable
1 x v2 Motor Cable O-Ring
Foil Drive Removable V2 Motor Cables
The Foil Drive Removable v2 Motor Cable allows for you to easily change the cable length and therefore position of the motor mounting on you mast. This allows you to customize your ride based on foiling discipline, skill level, rider preference and conditions.
The Removable v2 Motor Cable is compatible with the v2 Motor and is available in various cable lengths for adjusting motor placement on the mast. Each cable also comes with a v2 Motor Cable O-Ring.
Which motor should you choose?
It's important to note that there is some personal preference at play when it comes to motor height. We can, however, give you some information on what each height is ideal for, as well as some real life, rider examples! You'll notice some of the lengths paired together - this is because they have a similar use case, taken into account the different variables.
70cm and 60cm
These two are the longest of our available motors and are designed for Flatwater Foil Driving where you place the motor down near the fuselage and intend to be powered constantly, similar to "e-foiling". The reason there are two lengths is to take into consideration different mast heights. If you have a 70cm mast, you'll need the 60cm cable, and if you have a longer mast (80cm+), you'll need the 70cm cable.
25cm
The 25cm cable is designed as an in-between, hybrid motor position. Perfect for learners who want to limit how high above the water they can fly, or those wanting to enjoy both Foil Driving on flatwater and catching waves. The motor remains low enough that it stays in the water on small swell, giving you the option to motor the whole time, or start to lift up and feel the power of the swell alone. Eventually, you may choose to shorten this length once you feel comfortable with the motor exiting the water. This length is also ideal those who like to turn their location into a skate park, enjoying flatwater Foil Driving, then peeling onto a boat wake or swell!
20cm, 15cm and 12cm
While these lengths seem similar, you'll certainly know the difference! Designed for assisted foiling where you only use the motor to get on foil, then want it to exit the water for drag free flying, these motor heights draw the most discussion.
First off, when would you want the motor to exit the water in this assisted foiling style? Foiling disciplines like surfing, down winding, wake foiling, pumping and winging. Let's look into each discipline and compare the 20cm and 15cm.
The 20cm motor is a good allrounder. It provides the best of both worlds when it comes to powered and non-powered operation. If you're a more advanced foiler OR you just want to use your system in assist mode (only using it to get on foil) and you desire maximum drag-free foiling, the 12cm and 15cm is the best choice. However, it does make hybrid foiling in choppy water more difficult as the distance from the board to the water is a lot closer, BUT - you can still do it. Using a three-blade propeller setup definitely helps maintain thrust and grip on the water in the 12cm and 15cm motor position.
A. Surf - 12, 15, 20 ,25
B. Downwind -15, 20
C. Wake - 20, 25
D. Flatwater Pumping - 20
E. Winging (AKA Wind Ding or Wind Winging) - 15, 20
Note: When selecting the extreme lengths (shortest and longest) it is important to allow 10-15cm of clearance for the propellers. For example, if mounting close to the fuse, the middle of the motor pod should sit 10cm above the fuselage. When mounting near your board, the middle of the motor pod should not sit any higher than 10cm away from your board.
