Default RE: GP Rimfire motors?

That is why I questioned the replacement motor they sent me. I thought the 35-30-1450 would be hard on the 35amp ESC. For the GP Edge I would perfer the 1250 motor and the bigger prop (10x7). After double checking the specs after your post, I agree, I probably helped cook the 1450 motor. The strange thing is I've owned some off the wall, cheap motors before but have never had one fail so soon. I would expect alot better quality from Great Planes and for their equipment to be able to perform within their specs (or exceed) or just say "not for aerobatic or 3-D aircraft". Having people see their brand new equipment fail at the two flying fields I have been at is not the greatest advertising.
