Default RE: DIRECT DRIVE TAIL ROTOR

Glad to hear your motor works with the 3x2 prop. I trimmed 1/4inch off each end of the 3x3 prop to try and reduce the load. After flying on and off for about 8 minutes, the tail motor was hot again. It was almost too hot to touch. Considering going back to the geared setup until I get a better motor or smaller prop.
