Chopperdudes,

I have the same motor on my CP Pro and use the Sonix 18A esc.

The motor runs cool to warm and the esc is barely warm after 8 minute flights. That motor has plenty of power with the 9t pinion. With my Futaba 6exh radio, I really have to lower the throttle curve. If I run the high end at 100 %, I'm pretty sure the head would explode. It also runs fine with the stock radio.
