RE: Super Tigre .10 or E-Flite Power 10

Hi Art,

I reviewed a Thrust 20 some time ago, and was not initially impressed, but as you'll see, I ate some of my words in the second link! They are well-made, and expensive, but with good...

RE: Super Tigre .10 or E-Flite Power 10

Sounds good: all I can say is that my test motor with a 10x7 APC E on it, drawing 23.70A/255W, from 23C it reached 70C after 45 seconds on the stand. With an 11x5.5 APC E it drew 26.90A/291W and from...

RE: Super Tigre .10 or E-Flite Power 10

Using a crude rule of thumb in reverse.... watts = cubic inches x 2000... this ST is good for about 200W-250W... so that makes it about a .10 - .12.

The optimistic 370W given in the specs is...

RE: Super Tigre .10 or E-Flite Power 10

The reason it won't spin freely after a flight might just be that if the ESC is connected it will be energized and this will hinder a free spin. If you disconnect the ESC does the motor now spin...

RE: Super Tigre .10 or E-Flite Power 10

Was that a 9x6 APC SF.. if so I can understand the hot smell. After completing my tests on the ST .10 I'd only recommend 200W or so... any more and it gets very hot, very fast (even a 9x6 E might be...

RE: Super Tigre .10 or E-Flite Power 10

Unfortunately it does sound about right... that motor is bogging down with such a large prop... and that is all you are going to get out of it (and not for long since I fear the motor will fry)....

RE: Super Tigre .10 or E-Flite Power 10

I think the Kv will be too low for successful use of 7-8" props on only 3s. The couple of tests I ran with the SuperTigre .10 showed that it drew just under 20A/210W with a 10x6 GWS HD and around...

RE: Super Tigre .10 or E-Flite Power 10

The E-flite Power 10 is rated for waaay more power than a Super Tigre .10 can handle. The E-flite is said to be good for 375W, maybe even 450W... I have not completed some tests on the Super Tigre...
