If you have the $$ and the ability, I would highly suggest you replace the contacts on the motor leads. Upgrade them to at LEAST 5.5mm...

With this done, you should be able to run that prop without any issues...

The 3.5's really don't handle the amps very well. They get hot, the solder starts melting, and the wires get loose. You might not notice at first, because the heat-shrink sort of holds them in place. Eventually, they'll separate and could cause the power system to fail with intermittent contact.

The 5.5's will work well. They handle the current better and "sink" any heat better.
