[quote]Don't lose faith mate, those motors are all from the stone age of around 2005-2006.[/quote]
Your right!! I was so busy reading the posts that I didn't even check the dates that the posts were made!

What you suggested Kieran sounds really good. Is it worth going for 2 x 2200mAh for a total of 4400mAh at an extra 100 grams of weight? I guess that really depends on what the final weight of the plane is i suppose.

The eternal question for a twin electric... Twice the redundancy or twice the chance of failure!?! I'd personally prefer the motors to hit low voltage cutoff together with one power source than at different times. You could still use 2 of your existing 3s 2200's but wire them up in parallel

Is the 3 blade 8x6 prop too high a pitch? or does that depend on the motor?

Its what they have available. Note the pitch speed calculation, its not exactly out of the park screaming.

Do I need to have one motor counter rotating? Is that to balance the torque?

You don't but why wouldn't you, thats half the fun!
