          Whatever props you end up using just do a short run, check temps often. I've run the AQ 1800kv motors pretty hard and they are tough. I try to keep my temps below 120F.

              With temps like those, most likely your problem is cold solder joints which are not strong enough to handle a little heat. What solder are you using, and what wattage iron? What tip on the iron?
