Default RE: any problem with this setup?

ORIGINAL: fliprob17

They actually recommend the 40 amp Jeti. At Hobby Lobby the 2826/12 is packaged with the Jeti 40 amp in a combo deal. I think you will be fine. If you have a watt meter you may want to hook it up and see how much throttle you can get before you start pushing that 40 amp mark. With the right prop combo, you should be good to go. Maybe an 11x6 or 12x6 prop.
Yes, I saw that too on the H-L website. Some people have mentioned that it seems that the Jeti's are a little overrated when it comes to actual amps that it can tolerate before overheating/giving out.
Do you think a 12x6 prop is a good prop for a 72" cub? Again, I'm just going for scale flights, no acro.
