That's interesting Steve.
I think the stock ESC is only rated at 30A, so you're edging close to the limit there. I guess you flew at your local footy field? .... All good, looking forward to seeing it move (when this weather finally breaks!).

Yes i did at my local field, I thought of replacing esc to a hobbyking 40 amp with the same weight, but then i remember what keiran said the other day about the eflite escs are pretty good and the hobbyking one i have is the same as the one victor cooked a few weeks ago so that has put me off a bit.
I did a Static test with a fully charged lipo it max out at 30 amps and then subsided around 26-27 amps on full throttle.
After my test flight i found it fine only slightly warm so i think i just keep an eye on it and keep a 40 amp esc handy in my flight bag if i needed.

That little extra performance makes a huge difference, it flies so much better now it even feels like it glides nicer when you cut the throttle which i thought was strange with a bigger prop but when i thought about it, The parkzone prop is quite beefy from start to finish where as the apc is beefy in the middle and thins out at the ends. So theres less drag i guess and the amp pull is not a huge difference as i remember my stock prop pulled static 27 amps full throttle fully charge lipo and then down to 23 amps.

I gave the apc a light spray of flat black to match in with the T28 look, as you do.
