Just built my second FT plane, the Mustang. I love it. Thanks FT guys! I do want to get a bit more speed. Presently I'm running a Suppo 2217/7 1250KV, Suppo 30Amp esc and a 9 x 4.7 prop. I'm considering changing it to a Suppo 2217/6 1500KV ( http://www.altitudehobbies.com/a-series-motors/brushless-motor-425-28-33-1500kv-suppo-2217-6 ).
I'm wondering for the 1500KV:
1. Do I need to upgrade my ESC? Site says 30A is minimum recommended.
2. I was also considering a 8x6 prop. Is this going to be better than the 9 x 4.7? What would you recommend?
3. I presently have Turnigy 2200 3cell 20-30C. For this motor am I in danger of overloading the discharge rate?
I'm not clear on all the electronics and limits yet so I thought I would ask for assistance from the fine folks here.
