Hello! I'm motor shopping, and I'm between 2 motors:
PROPDRIVE v2 2826 1200KV (https://hobbyking.com/en_us/propdrive-v2-2826-1200kv-brushless-outrunner-motor.html)
and
Turnigy D3530/14 1100KV (https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-d3530-14-1100kv-brushless-outrunner-motor.html)
Why does the Turnigy say it draws 22A with an 8x4 prop, while the PropDrive draws 15A with the same prop, even though the PropDrive has a higher KV? Is there any advantage to the lower-kv, heavier Turnigy?
