Great GENESIS from ASTEC, the motor is a FSD 540XL

Nobody in the states is going to stock these because by the time we add shipping, our COST is the same as Hobbyking is selling them to YOU for.

Looks great HJ! Wish someone in the states stocked these. It's a killer looking hull.

Myself and a fellow club member have had VERY bad luck with the 580 motor! When it goes, it takes out the esc too! After a total of 4 motors and 4 esc's between us, the NEU motor became the CHEAP solution!

Prop the 580 WAY down from what you would normally expect!

Run the 580. Be careful, do not overprop it! Many, including myself have had bad luck with that motor. Or, sell them all and get a Neu.

Yeah Jim, its unfortunate, but I remember reading that. I'd be willing to pay more to a local dealer if they took the time to tweak out some of the issues. Unfortunately it would probably drive the costs up too much to be worth it.

x642, m445, cf48, those are props I was thinking bout using. What do you think or should I grab something else?

[sailr]

I think I may have misled you. I thought you had a Feigao 580 but after going back to earlier in the thread you said a Feigao 11XL, that is just the 540 Feigao. Nowhere near the worries with that motor. Sorry if I scared you!.

With the 11xl having a KV of 1557, I would start with the X642. The M prop is more suited for a hydro or rigger. Watch your temps. You should be fine.

No you were right. I have both motors a 580 7l and a 540 11xl. So you think the 11xl would be better than the 580 7l? What if I used the 580 7l with a x642? I'm just confused on what would be the best option

[Alfa Spirit]

Use the 580L but 8Turns will be better with 6S
