Weight: 317.2g
IR (mohm) 30
Discharge rate: 40C Continuous, 80C Burst.
Plug: 4.0 Banana Plug

I would swap out the 4.0 banana plugs for either 5mm or 6.5mm. But I would get 35k rpm from the first motor and 31k rpm from the second. But the second motor seems to draw less amps. So I think the second option is the better. This is all going in a 32" scorpion. I know I basically have to get a prop and run it to see how it runs, but I am looking to pick up a prop or two to try. So I need to know where to start.

I would go with motor option 2 1400kv if using 6s and prolly start with x445 or m445. Jmo
