They run at 4s with 5" props no problem, they come down just warm after me thrashing them for 3 mins using hq 5045 bullnose props, if you wanted to run 6" props you would be better with 2206 2000kv with that setup i would use 6045's.

The legs don't feel strong.

Graham Lawrie · Post by **Graham Lawrie** » Thu Apr 23, 2015 8:53 pm

The legs fit snug over the posts.

Graham Lawrie · Post by **Graham Lawrie** » Thu Apr 23, 2015 8:57 pm

The motor's have a good route for the wires on the legs.

And enough room to put the esc on one body plate for ease of dismantling
