This is not something you are wanting to hear and I hate to break it to you. [:@]

That motor is not going to work for a hull of this size. At 5600kv it is far too much RPM for direct drive. On just 2s (7.4v) you will have an unloaded 40 000RPM which is 10 000 more than what I would want.

A hull this large will need lots of power to push it. To achieve this you would need to run higher cell counts such as at least 4s, I'd prefer 6s. With even 3s you would be far over the RPM limit of most inrunners.

Moving forward with this motor will only lead to burned up components. I would strongly suggest investing in another motor and keep this one for a 2s Rigger.

I will have a go making a rigger with this setup.
