Hey Guys,
So I got 100% of my electronics... I wanted to give my power system a test. and.... not sure what is going on but my motor was pretty hot! From what I recall on my HK-010 watt meter. I was pushing.... around 30Amps and like 300W can't recall exact numbers, but if anyone wants I can set it up and run it again. I wasn't any where near the motor limits. Or shouldn't be.. any suggestions am I over propped?? Not sure.
Also Hope I am not messing up.... I didn't balance prop before placing on prop adapter, and kept my ESC at factory settings as I didn't feel like I needed to update anything.
