RE: Wild Hare Electrics
I'd have to say that I question the amperage issue. With my setup the higher voltage also allows the motor to pull less amperage and put out the same wattage. Understanding exactly how the esc works was rough and I still don't completely get all of it so I'm no expert on the chopping and cycle situation. But based on the readings I got, both average and peak, they were able to be lowered overall and they are low enough to stay within spec from everything I've found so far. It was enough to make me want to give it a try.
I agree on the prop issue up to a certain point. When you are running more voltage than the motor is rated for then RPM becomes an added concern if you aren't monitoring/limiting the other things. In other words if I propped it where the current draw was within spec and didn't limit the endpoint then the motor would be spinning fast enough to make other things a concern. I udnerstand the concept though.
