Popping fuses...
I think you are likely to pop a lot of fuses.
The in rush current alone may be enough to pop a standard fuse.
I think that you could probably get by if you replaced the fuse with a circuit breaker but you are still walking on thin ice.
You will have to have the motor very lightly loaded in order for it not to have repeated tripping problems.
You will be temped to use the 30 Amp breaker. Again, You can probably get by, but you are on thin ice. One problem with this is that the relay itself is not rated for high current. It is easier than you'd think to weld the contacts on this type of relay.
Victors are so much nicer for this type of application. Perhaps you can ask around for teams with old 883's to sell?
I know Chief Delphi had a boatload of them at one time (we used them in our old Chief Delphi Invitational RC boxes), but I think we are more or less out of stock. I can't be sure but I THINK we don't have that many left any more.
