which ESC is good for this motor, can we use any kind of prop with this motor? :help:

akky

minimum 30 amp  ...to stay on the safer side use 40 amp..this motor is specifically designed for 64 mm EDF unit..you cannot use normal props for it

First up, a 40Amp ESC should be fine as it has a max current draw of 22.7 Amps (However, please note that is for a 55/64mm ducted fan, not for a prop). I am just using a simple thumb rule here i.e. 1.5 X max amperage of motor = ESC rating. (Champions please comment).

Secondly, can we fit a prop to an EDF motor? That is a question that I wanted to ask for a long long time. Hope the Champs can clarify this as well.

VC sir u can surely use it but the main problem will come with the mounting..plus selecting a prop for such high KV is a bit tricky (atleast for me  :banghead: :banghead:
but i am using 2 heli motor as pusher motors of high rpm
using a 5X3 prop on a 4300KV heli motor

Yo Akky boy! You've hit the nail on the head! My thoughts, exactly.

its an edf motor,but can use a prop of 4.7 or 5inch,one more thing select a good esc,possibly 25 to 30amp would be fine

akky

2 amps for this no way,,,minimum 30 is required....will will also get hot after 3mins of running one needs 40amps for aptt performance

VC sir but where will u use this with prop ....better buy an inrunner of the same speed
but if you want a high speed out runner...use a trurnigy typhoon. you can easily convert it into a high speed outrunner. i have done the same

in this esc it clearly says , "Do not use with motors with a Kv of more than 2200rpm/v. Doing so will overload the ESC."
so can i use this one     http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=9299
