47" mono racing spec

[Mel279]

hi guys

My arrowshark dragon flying 47" mono (lookslike DF 47"mono) will be coming soon which I bought from a friend. I would like to know are my setup ok for racing with those gasser? below are my setup.

Motor: TP 5850/9D 820kv
Esc: SF 240a Hv
Lipo: Gens Ace 10s1p 45c 5800mah
prop: either x850/3 (50mm, 1.8p 3 blades) or octura x457.

I don't know what's the runtime with this setup. What I know from those gasser race, for heat race about 3mins and final 7mins. Hope you guy scan give me better suggestion with my current setup.

I run a similar setup in my 46" mono, 5682 leopard 740kv on 10s and use an X457 which works well, you will definitely struggle to get 7 mins race runtime

I try and see how it goes, if not..I may have to get a high capacity lipo to achieve that runtime.

Just launch at 30 secs and go slow to the start, you only need about 3min's run time avoid killing the battery, just don't run longer than the race finish = a slow lap.
