Keep burning esc.
 
Hi, new to RC airplanes and site. Need some advice on motor prop ESC battery combo. Building a 700 mm trainer. 650g, 2600 kv motor 30 amp ESC 8.6 prop With a 2200 3S battery 30C. I have burnt out three ESC‘s and one motor and I’m not sure where I am going wrong. I think it may be the prop from my research but Any help is appreciated.

Yes that prop is WAAAAAAAY too big for that motor, a 6x4 would suit you just fine, plenty of thrust too!

Should get yourself a Wattmeter. Will prevent you burning up all your electrical equipment. Pays for itself the first time it alerts you to overloading your motor.
