A kv somewhere in the upper 400s to 500 would be suitable for this application. If CC's outrunners are like other typical outrunners then the kv choices will be similar. The motor I am interested in (about 4025-4035 size) will be offered with a kv in the range of 400-700.

I see a 450kv in the 34mm CC motor line! This line of CC motors is different. I'm sure intentionally.

The kv is determined by the wind. A huge outrunner can be rewound to a relatively high kv, but your system couldn't handle the startup amperage. On the other hand, a small outrunner can be wound to a low kv, but have torque out the wazoo.

Patrick was saying they ran a 30mm motor up to 1000 watts burst. Probably in an airplane no doubt. LOL

I wonder what the power handling ability of the 34mm line is going to be?

What is the stator size on the 34mm line of motors? 28mm x 34mm ?

Need more input!

Patrick is indeed going to have to give us more specs... WE NEED THEM. And some test motors would be nice
Granted if we did test motors for Patrick, it would be more of durability testing than anything else.

"WE", like you and me? Ummm.........you mean like Beta testers or something?

Hey! That would be GREAT. As a matter of fact, I think I read something about that somewhere.

Where is Patrick when you need him?
But to be fair, Metallover would need one too

Yeppers, after all, Metallover was the one that sent the spark that got this fire going again.

That's too true. I'm the most deserving person on this forum.

But really... I am.

And the most modest too. Wow you are definately a catch!
