Motor calc program
 
HI
I am running a Hacker A50-16L being driven by Hyperion 8S 5000mAH cells through a Hacker Master 80Amp ESC on a 18 x 10 prop in my Wind S and I would like to get an idea of the Max current draw etc I can expect from this set up, Can anyone point me towards a Online Calc program I can use. All the ones I have tried so far have given me non sensical answers.

I tried this calc for my 6S / Scorpion 4025-12 / APC 17x10 setup and got an amp draw of just over 100, using the Scorpion motor calc this reduced to just over 85amps so you can get different results from different calculators.

Guess its because of the data for the particular motor and also the prop ... for my DualSky motors I use their own software, that is pretty accurate, down to about 5% variation but I have yet to ever check the RPMs.
