So you have a 2820-950 on 4s in the wattaplane!?!?!?

Which prop? Anything over a 12x6 on 4s is in the 900w range!

Yea 2820 with a 12x6 next time will prop up im trying to kill the airframe so i can get another i musta repaired it good. Figured the 4s woulda destroyed it already

I know its hobbyking, but for the $$ I couldn't resist.

Goes great on 4s. Lousy on 3s.

I wouldn't think it could handle 70A without melting, but certainly doesn't get hot with 50A on 4s 13x6.5 prop.

does anyone know if you can get a motor box for the slick and if so, where?

thats the only thing that sucks . the usa.wattaplane warehouse has no spares really. but i ordered an extra motor box, wire LG, and a few others. from the time i ordered to my mail box took 9 days.
