F1 24" Finally finished.

[F1 madness]

Id step down on the prop 3s on a 3600 kv motor might be getting on the hot side of things . Try a 430 or a 427.

alrite bud the motors comes in cold,only the esc is warm (not hot just warm to the touch)

Youd be surprized at the difference a few mm on prop size makes.Try a smaller prop.

oh i know how much load a prop can put on a motor,iv tried a smaller prop but just getting loads slipage even at low throttle,then it still cutting power

[F1 madness]

well ordered a bigger ESC just gotta wait for it to turn up up then will go and try it,and hopefully the problem will be cured and can get some more vids

[F1 madness]

SORTED new ESC has arrived and installed,just charging batts and im off to do some runs,hopefully problem cured and will get some vids if all goes well.
Cant wait the excitement

thats a shame,looks like with a little sorting it would have been a very nice little runner.
with a little patch work you could make a nice shelf queen if you didnt want to run it again.

it is a shame,was running strong awell,but could patch it and make a fibreglass mould of it and try again,maybe even sell few LOL.
But started new build now to replace it.
