has anyone tryed this set up ? gonna use the stock esc, for now.

You'll burn up the stock esc running that large of prop. If you put a seaking 180 in it it will work with that kv motor but not sure about running those props on that small of dia motor. I run a castle 1515 2200kv with the same props mentioned but that motor is a torque beast.

X442. Ditch the stock esc

Good call. A x642 works well with that same motor in my geico. Running 4s2p will also help.

I will be changing escs soon, right now I running a 1090kv with the stock esc and 4s and a m445, it runs good but just want to but a higher kv motor in it and stick with 4s set up.
I had some bad luck with my other escs and burned them up, not sure how but they would arm and power the rudder but not the motor and the escs got hot on the bench just touching the throttle.
on one esc as soon as I armed it I had a run a way motor and sparks started flying faster then I could disconnect it, so now just running the stock 60amp esc,
live and learn.
