    Mean machine 4s 180 seaking esc and leopard 2200kv

    Current setup is running a prather 220 and it runs very well. I did get a chance to try a prather 225 with full blade. Motor temp and lipo temp perfectly fine, but my speed control was borderline. Speed of the prop and handling was awesome.

    What prop would you guys recommend me to run that is ready to go? I was told an M cut taking some tounge off the blade would keep temps down.

    What would you guys recommend running to get the performance and keep heat down? If it slips on holeshot that is fine.

    An M545 is a good one for that set up.
    Steve has one in the shop already sharpened & balanced.

    What ever prop you end up with, don't be so hung up on the 'holeshot'. That's where you will tend to blow your ESC. You can draw double the current when you nail it from a standing start.
    Take it easy, build it up onto the plane, & then open her up. So much easier on everything. Especially cold batteries.
    Cheers.

    See the danger. THEN DO IT ANYWAY!!!
