nobody seems to want this amazing beautiful DVX I had for sale.... SO, this is getting the junkyard make-over

This will be a budget build but a CLEAN build.. I've started with a 760 purchased from Brandon Ware and will start accumulating parts shortly

better and cheaper than a stock Superjet and not much more in $$ into it...

You should do an electric build instead. Get some of the influx of libtard Californians moving to Texas into the shop. :p

Keep in mind that the highest rated motor on that site is rated somewhat vaguely as "20-25KW" and "50KW peak", 25KW = roughly 33HP (so JS300 territory) and 50KW = roughly 67Hp (stock 61x ish) and they're probably rating the input of the motor not output so useful power lower than that.

You cant really compare electric to gas. For instance my 1hp electric gokart had significantly more power then my 5hp gas gokart. Depending on the motor you can figure 2-3x more power compared to gas. so 33hp electric would be closer to 70hp+ on a gas engine. (again this depends on the motor, cheap chinese junk motor off ebay is not going to be the same as an industry grade American made motor)

That's not how it works. HP is a unit of power regardless of the primary mover. Now, you will probably get more torque per unit of HP with electric motors so it will feel like it's more powerful initially, but it takes a large electric motor to have continuous high torque.

That being said, I'd love to try to build an electric jet ski just for experimentation. My dream in about 15 years is to be on a catamaran sailboat sailing the seas with an electric jet ski onboard. An electric Edge with 30 mins a run time would be pretty cool.

So does this mean you multiply the rated power by 2-3, or do you multiply the peak power that happens to be about double the rated power by 2-3?

Depends on the motor; but figure if it peaks at 30hp then it will feel similar to a gas engine that makes 60hp. I have had a handful of electric builds in multiple things from wheel barrows to pitbikes. To give an example my 24v 1hp Leeson (American made motor) makes enough power to drive a small car. But my 50v 2.5hp chinese motor barely has enough power to go up a small hill in a pitbike. I dont have any experiance with the golden motors so not sure if that would be the best one for the job or not.
