Help! 4S brushless motor and ESC for FT Flyer?

[Karthik1130]

Hello all, Today for the first time took maiden of FT Flyer for 4minutes, and it was a success.
The following were the electronics:
1) A2212 2200KV brushless motor
2) Simonk 30A ESC
3) 3S 1300mAH LiPo battery
4) 6045 plastic propeller.

I would like to know whether can we use 4S battery in the same FT flyer.If yes could you suggest a 4S compatible brushless motor and ESC.

The FliteTest F pack motor and 25a ESC can do 4s. It’s a lot lighter than what you have on there right now too.

How does the Flyer fly with that 2212 2200kv motor? That seems like a lot of motor for that plane!

Thanks for the info. But in India, it's not available. Could you suggest some alternative.
The A2212 2200kv motor performed superbly.Lot of power, also balance and control was excellent.

The ESC should be marked as to what it can handle as a maximum somewhere on it. Like 1S 5 amps. If it says 2S or 3S, then no you can't use 4S sucessfully for very long
