    Under propping?

    Sorry if this has been discussed, but, can excessive heat be generated from under propping a motor? Thanks

    Yes, it is similar to running without a load. At full throttle what power is not being used to spin the too-small prop is converted into heat.

        You should try a grim 42/55 on your mm , is the same final pitch as m440 but 2mm larger in diameter

            Tommy, I've been thinking about a x642 with tongue removed
