GREAT , thanks Gary .
what i have done is try my electric light wood 2 blade 16x6 props . i have 2 of them fully balanced .
the readings are spot on here . as i get 46amps 918 watts on spike here and settles to about 870 watts . PURRRRFECT .
I T LOOKS GOOD TOO , i guess scale buffs would call this sacreligious . but the 16x6 is perfect for the 5s setup . the 14x8 4 blader is too big , and the 15x6 lightwood too small .
looking forward to flying tomorrow . the lightwood 16x6 prop is very noisy in comparison to the 4 blader . so hopefully it might sound a little like 4 stroking.
online though i may order a 14x7 3 blader master airscrew and 13x8 from hobbies in the hills if they still have any . i feel though the 16x6 is just great foir this as it might just pull down speed and have great thrust .
JUST CHECKED OUT THAT LINK . THE FIGURES ON THAT CALC MATCH THE FIGURES I WAS GETTING IN THE GARAGE TO THE LAST AMP . EXCELLENT LINK . CHEERS .
ohhhh and couldnt help myself . the 3 blade master airscrew 14x7 is on the way from china to my door .
