JAE Builds

[Brushless55]

It looks like I have discovered a mistake I made that was a significant contributor to the overheating. I purchased the kit and hardware off Ebay from someone that had never gotten around to starting the build and in the kit there was two motors. I put the smaller motor in thinking it was the UL-1, but I was wrong. The larger motor is a 36-56-2030, but the smaller motor that I installed is a 36-50-2300.

So I guess now I put in the UL-1 motor, stick with my current prop and get a larger capacity ESC. Does that sound appropriate?

sounds like this will work!
that 3650 2300kv motor pulls some amps for sure
fast motor when setup right

H-7 Is also a great prop for that setup...no worry about heat and run times are better. I would run a mill lap and up to 6 laps with about 1/3 of the battery left (which is about where you want to be after running)... anything more and you will really start to get esc wires hot enough to unsolder bullets from their wires!

I've had good results w/o overheating with these setup:

Motor Kv V RPM
H-6 45.5 x 71.0 x 73.7 UL-1/4S 2080 14.8 30,784
H-7 47.5 x 72.0 x 74.9 4092/5S 1730 18.5 32,005
