Default RE: A different approach

Got in 3 flights today. Needs a little tweaking. The main thing is the CG is a little aft. Other then that and the 19X12 APC prop didn't give the vertical that is needed for the advanced sequence but that was expected. The motor and speed control temp was checked after each flight and were barely warm so the system will handle a bigger prop without issue. Being a 230KV motor, I doubt that it will handle the usual 21.5X14 that most guys seem to be running so I am looking for some suggestions. I was thinking 22X10 or 22X12.


I would like to extend a big thanks to Luke for letting me use 3 of his battery packs to do the test flights!
