Warrantied watts or amps on wicked jr 3200kv motor

[ghopper]

Title says it all. I'm looking to find the allowable watts or amps for this motor. Can anyone enlighten me or what is the max you've put thru this little guy?

Thanks,
Dan

For the Wicked Jr on a 3S lipo about 16-18 amps is about the max you want to go when settled or about 180 watts. You can get more than that on a fresh lipo but but I mean the settled amps. It also depends of the cooling you get. The motor was intended for use on small fast flying wing type models, so at 80-90 mph they get great cooling as they are exposed to teh air. If you fly it at those watts but slow or in a helicopter with less cooling then you have to run less watts to keep the heat down. What are you using it in?

Hi Don,
Thanks for the reply. I'm putting this on a FS-33. I'm shooting for an AUW of 18 oz.
I was thinking of possibly a 5 x 3 prop as a max. Currently I have a 4.5 x 4.1 or a 4.1 x 4.1 to put on it. I'll make sure I keep it below 18 amp max then.
