Size motors to use with MMP

I cant find the thread for the 70mm statment, but it made since to me at the time. I looked most of the evening yesterday but Patrick posts a lot and I get side tracked easily.

I don't know why you would say that. Motor current is a function of load (gearing, weight, etc) for the most part. In something as small as the mini ERevo, there is practically no load, so you'd be lucky to draw 10A max, and most of that would be the power required just to accelerate the rotor by itself. Frankly, I'd be more worried about the drivetrain.

Dunno I guess I was tired.
