Hi Guys
Ive just realised something! ( im a noob forgive my ignorance!)
For my 450 build I was supplied with a Scorpion Commander 35A Esc and a 3680 KV motor.
Is the Esc man enough for the motor?
Thanks
Jay
 
Unfortunately, we cna't decide that with just the kv alone. I would need the watts of the motor to figure out the amprage rate. but, it should be okay. Scorpion is one of the best brand out there, and is usually under rated. If it's not getting to hot to hold, then you will be fine. they do have a thermal shutdown that will slowly lower the throttle and allow you to land if they are getting too hot. Not like the cheap ESC's I was using in the FF-22 where the ESC's just shut off.
 
Cheers Tony
Unfortunately I bought a cheap motor> ( it came recommended)
I cant seem to find the power value of the motor! The KV rating is the only thing I can find, I dont even know who made it!
 
It's all good. i would just install it and see how it goes. It should be okay with that ESC.
 
+1 35A should be plenty for normal flying. A 3D master Might push it to the limit so no worries.
