          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.

                            Ron.
                            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!!!
