There are so many possible combos of motor , speed controls , batterys , air temps , altitude ,ect ect ect , you almost have to try the different props to see how it works in YOUR setup , i fly mine with the 714 kv motor , a 15x7 falcon wood prop from adc hobbystore ,4s 4000 mah 25c gens ace packs ,cobra 80 amp speed control , more than enough power , long flight times and motor comes down just barely warm , what else would one want ?

Thanks Oz. I have the recommended torque motor, and have been running a 15x6 xoar prop using 4000 mah batteries, leaving a lot of mah in the packs. I'm trying to figure out how much more current I'll draw WOT with a 15x7. I have a power meter coming, which will allow me to easily measure this at home.

Be careful with the 16x8, tried it out today and my airboss was pulsing, came down and hooked it up to a meter, was pulling 80a and just over half throttle. I adjusted my throttle down to 40% and the airboss is still coming down pretty warm. If I'm going to use the 16x8, I'll probably get a different speed controller.

What 3600's are you running? Curious as I have some Haiyin 3600's that are coming on the Brown truck sometime today. Any issues with setting CG? Other useful tidbits you can share about them? Thanks, JC EDIT - Brown truck arrived. Batteries are here! Should have plane finished and ready to maiden this weekend. Woo Hoo |

At 100% the motor was fine but the esc was pulsing after about 4 minutes of flight. At 40% I ran it hard for 5 minutes and it pulses again, brought it down and the motor is 92 degrees and the esc was 140. Might be too much prop for this esc... |
