That would be correct if wired in Delta, in Star it could be up to 14sOriginally posted by Leeandre View PostAt 1050 kv , can be used at 10s for the most ?

I would say in a larger mono, bigger than 40" a 455 or 460 would be a good choice. I had a 45" Hydro with both of those props and a 780kv motor on 10s. Anything smaller in hull size is overkill I think. I cant remember the formula to figure out the kv in WYE(STAR) vs Delta. I have it here somewhere. If I find it, I'll post it, or maybe someone can chime in. In any case, when changing from Delta to WYE(STAR) the KV drops to allow for more voltage.

I think this is the formulaOriginally posted by Leeandre View PostIf I wanted to run it in a mono between 10s and 12s with prop changes between like an 0ctura x455 and a x460 will this motor work. A bit of a novice as you can tell . Oh it's a single
Please someone correct me if this is wrong.
Delta KV divided by 1.73.
So 1050kv / 1.73 = 606.94....
14s = 3.7 x 14 =51.8v...
So 51.8v x 607kv= 31,643 rpm
or
10s = 37v
37v x 1050kv = 38,850 rpm
OR
depending on how you represent battery voltage
@ 3.7v or 4.2v (discharged vs fully charged battery)
14S = 4.2v X 14 = 58.8v
58.8v X 607kv = 35,691 rpm
or
10s = 42v
42v x 1050kv = 44,100 rpm
You need a VERY good speed controller.Last edited by jj2003; 01-08-2017, 01:01 PM.

Don't use 4.2 volts for this type of calculation, the motor never sees this voltage under load. 3.7 is a better average loaded voltage although a bit low. Kv x volts does not provide loaded rpm, this is heavily influenced by motor and ESC efficiency, and pack quality. IME a better formula for estimating loaded rpm with loads around 150 amps is:
Kv x 3.7 x 0.85 = loaded rpm
Again just an estimate, but more useful than Kv x volts
To leandre - if you want to run 10S to 12S the Delta wind is not the way to go. Wye wind Kv is about 600, so on 12S expect a loaded rpm around 23,000. An x460/2 should work well, as would an x455/3 on a correctly trimmed mono from 40-45" long.

Sorry, but you are very wrong. I speak from experience, the 3080 motor is perfect for large gas monos. At least three club members have run 3080s in their 42-45" racing monos and they were ballistic, topping out between 60-75 mph depending on the prop used. In races they ran away and hid from 'most all gas powered monos. They work great in single cats and sport hydros of the same size too. You just need to choose the right Kv.You do not run this motor in a 40-45 mono. Its to heavy...

Oh and I know a guy who runs a single 3080/9 (583Kv) in a 67" mono turning an X470 on 12S2P...just to give an idea of what these motors are capable of.

Good point, thanks. My formula was for every other motor - use a correction actor of 0.93 for Lehners.Keep in mind too that Lehner's are rated "under load" for Kv bringing final rpm up noticeably.
