      I run a 447 3 blade with my 2200Kv Leopard. It will take a more aggressive prop next season as the motor and controller were always barely warm.
      Thank You Sir!!

                  Just wait for some snow Doby:

                  Fast forward 4 minutes of drivel. They probably smoked a few before they went running.

                        I've been running a de-tongued Y547 on mine with a TFL 4082 2200kv motor. Everything is fine. Your Neu motor shouldn't have any problems.

                        Cheers.
                        Paul.
                        See the danger. THEN DO IT ANYWAY!!!

                                What is a decent RTR weight for P-hydro? My Popeye ended up @ 8.2lbs. with 2 4s packs.
