If the price was the same for all three, the 535kv would most likely fit my flying style. Im not a hardcore flyer, just a sport flyer....mild 3D.

I went kde 700xf g3 505 for my gob 700 kde build. I'm expecting great things from it. Should put me right around 1800 for headspeed. With a ton of grunt behind it.

For a three blade setup, yeah. I probably won't even hit that.
