you DONT wanna use greatstuff foam.
the stuff holds water and gets heavy and can damage your hull.

take pool noodles and cut them and glue them into place. they dont hold water. and are really light and bouyant.

If the hull & deck are not joined or it's a scratch build project, I use wall insulation foam (blue or pink sheet) sanded to shape and glued in place. The pool noodles are my #2 choice.

at 6s that 1620KV motor will be turning at 35,964 rpm and a 2200 kv motor would be 48,840 rpm
