I'm not surprised - an Ammo 36-50-2300 swinging a BIG prop on direct drive

2300kv is huge for a direct drive 'hotliner' running a big folder-prop.

My SK3 is only 960kV - as is the MVVS Redliner. On 4S, that equates to ca 14,000 rpm at WOT. On a 2300kV, that's closer to 34,000 rpm - and I'd want to be more than 15 ft away when it finally decides to crap itself...

Ha ha. Yea, that was quite an experiment.

KR I got the castle link to work last night Im drawing a litle bit more then 600w With the Ammo 28-45-3600; 13/8 Aeronaut; Phoenix Ice 75 lite on a 3S . Lots of fun, but I think it is time to go 4S, let see the current draw

You're running a 13x8 at 3600kV?

Yowsa!

BJ

BJ I should have said something about the 4.3:1 Planetary gear,sorry

Oh... kewl

Was gonna say - I wouldn't want to be standing near you if you were winding up a 13x8 on 4S at 3600kV direct drive... LoL

Finally back at the bench for my OWN planes lol... Making huge strides on my "Super"Siren... Got the radio programmed, the surfaces mounted, just got to paint the fuse (repairs) some small odds an ends...

Interesting artwork, D6.

And even more interesting control surfaces - are you running flaps as well as aileron?

Thanks (Artwork)
As far as the surfaces go... I'm running "Full House" setup for fun... Aileron/Flap mixing (Flaps move w/Ailerons) as well as traditional Flaps, Spoilers, Crow, Butterfly... I think I have Teradactyl setup too

LoL@"Teradactyl setup"

The 3S setup would be nice, but I'm running mine on 4S. With a Flight Power 3S 3350mAh 30C battery I got 570W (similar to your 600W) and with a Flight Power 4S 2500mAh 25C battery I got 738W (all static readings on the bench).

But I'm flying with a Thunder Power 4S 2700 65C, so I'm doing even better yet than 738W (around 500W - 700W depending on how you look at the in-flight data - during a climb, or straight-and-level).
