lehner 2240/5 help

[Jcarlton]

hey guys got a awesome deal on a lehner 2240/5 hi amp 2960kv loaded . was wondering if a turnigy 180v3 can handle that motor on 6s ? was thinking about installing on a mg 29 (prolly overkill) ! any ideas or other input would be appreciated !

[Todd Fleury]

No way will that esc hold up.

[Todd Fleury]

I run a 2250 - 2603kv lehner with a 250 amp esc and I still peak the amps on 4s

[Jcarlton]

what esc would you suggest ?

[Todd Fleury]

That all depends on what you want to spend. But you would need to get something 250+

[Jcarlton]

what are you running todd ?

[T.S.Davis]

You'll need more than 250. That's way too many kV for 6s. It's a lot for 4s.

[Jcarlton]

so whats the best setup in your opinion ? what esc and what batery size ? im new to these lehner motors . was going to run the lehner in a mg 29 with a octurra x438 prop any thoughts ?

[Todd Fleury]

I run an MGM 250

You motor would be a good 3s motor maybe 4s but that's gonna be a hot setup. A good speed controller is the MGM 280-26

ok guys got a good deal on a 200a swordfish pro+ . can this controller handle the lehner 2240/5 on 4s 70c lipo with a 38mm prop on a 36 in cat .

[Todd Fleury]

That motor is 3255 kv unloaded. That esc will not be able to handle the amp.

[Jcarlton]

loaded its 2960 kv whats the difference ? and how many amps do you think it will pull on the above setup ?
