Default Did I get the wrong battery?
I have the E-flite Tensor 4D with the Park 370 outrunner 1360Kv motor and the Phoenix-10 ESC and a 10x4.7 prop.

I tried to run the Electrifly 1200mAh 7.4V 2 cell Li-Po pack but the ESC shuts down after about 20 seconds at full throttle.

The ESC manual tells me this is due to the motor drawing too much current.

Do I have the wrong battery or do I need a bigger ESC or is the prop wrong?

I searched for some type of formula to figure it all out, but I'm not much good at higher math anyway

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
