If you run this motor on 8s, at 3.7v the motor is operating at 46,768rpm and at 4.2v its at 53,000+rpm!!!!!
So this would be a little worrying...
That is why i bought the 1520 as it is still rated to 60,000rpm ;) and i want to push 9s through it ;)
just a little heads up... im sure it would be fine to run 8s but just thought i would mention this if you didnt know

Its borderline, but that is the unloaded rated IIRC. Kv should drop, as should voltage under load. I don't think it will see quite that high of rpm, but surely over 40K tho. It would need a really tough controller to handle that much power tho. I can only imagine the amp draw
I was playing w/ some gear calcs yesterday, and I was thinking about the CC 1520 on 8s too. The 1717 is superbaddass too, so IDK.
