hi everyone . I'm looking for help as I'm not very rich 🙂.
I went electric with my wharram, made an outboard motor with a GM 5kw and a Kelly 140A controller, it didn't work perfectly, a little crooked in the shaft and a very noisy motor, so I found a used GM ez outboard x20.
I sold the old motor/controller and to be kind I threw my new throttle in the deal as I made one myself.
I don't need a 3 Gear death's kontakt or a sticker that tells me which way it moves and Sorry it looks like a toy 🥴.
But to my horror I found out that it doesn't work it can't find neutral .
Well I talked to Hunter from GM but he wouldn't say anything other than it was specially made and the menu was locked, so I had to buy a new one .
and it's just 400€ at miromax😵?💫and after miromax talked to Hunter he only helps with things you've bought from him👍. correction miromax does not help unless you pay for it, sorry for the misunderstanding.
and to everyone who is thinking of buying an x5-10 or 20, find another option because the quality is really bad, very soft aluminum and incredibly poorly painted. and this magnet drive is not good, I started melting the whole thing when I tested it together for max 5 seconds above the water COMPLETELY MY OWN FAULT BECAUSE I DIDN'T READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.
then the motor drowns, and instead of Golden motor having some drawings etc of the motor on its website, you can get 1 instruction at a time from Hunter and when you have completed the task, you can write to Hunter again for the next task. I could see in the instruction book that water in the motor required that you pack it up and send it back to Golden motor, I don't think you want your motor to lie around longer than necessary when it is filled with salt water, it would have been destroyed before it reached China.
I was lucky enough to get an extra propeller and the thing it sits in, but now I can see that the plastic cover is cracked all the way around the bottom and has subsequently started to rust since the magnets are in an iron frame. Since Golden Motor won't sell me a potentiometer for the throttle, but only a complete throttle, I think I'll try to warn as many people as possible against buying their ez-outboard motor. And by the way, miromax told me that it was an old controller (blue) that was in it 🤔 I have paperwork that says it's from 23 so things quickly become obsolete at Golden Motor, or they've had some old crap lying around in stock that they want to get rid of
Regards Sven.
