Default RE: Help in selecting correct speed controler

Get a copy of MotorCalc (free D/L and 30 day use ) and plug the specs of the plane, prop, etc in the program. The results will show you the max amps the setup will draw (look through the spreadsheet ). Then figure a little higher as a safety margin so the "magic smoke" doesn't escape.
