Hello there,
I bought an EDF kit from a bro (some Chinese brand) which came with a 64 mm EDF fan. I upgraded to a 70 mm EDF can with 7 blades, and mated it with a 4800/kv motor from HK. Wanted to run the jet on a 2200 mAH 3S lipo.
I think that this is the kit: http://www.edfplanes.com/exrcmi2064ed.html
I tried a 50 AMP ESC from HK - when going to full power (which is a lot), it only lasts a few secs and then drops power quite substantially. Maybe I have ruined the ESC, maybe it was low quality (=fairly cheap). Why does this happen?
So, my questions for you guru's out there are:
1. For a 70 mm with 7 blades, how many amps should I be pulling on full throttle, or 50% throttle?
2. What ESC do you suggest would be the best? Does anyone have one they would like to sell to me?
3. How long a flight can I get from a 2200 mAH 25-40C battery?
Thanks,
Nomi
