Hi all need to decide what size flex shaft to install in my John Finch 32'' Wild thing mono will be starting with 7xl '9xl Feigo's and a Leopard 3674 1900 kv on 4s with a possiblity of 6s set-ups down the road. Which would be better suited 5/32'' or 3/16'' flex shaft? Regards Andris Golts.

I would start with the leopard and not the Feigao's. Def not the 7xl... None of those motors you have are 6s motors, that would fry everything that's for sure. None of the motors would be my first choice, but the Leopard is best choice out of all those listed. you could get away with a .150 cable with 3/16 stub with any of those motors. JMHO
