G+_Carlton Dodd Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 I cut down some 5030 props to 4 inches for my 160 frame using a 3D printed adapter for my Dremel. I balanced them out with a cheap magnetic balance setup. I'm new to this; should these work with the 1306 3100KV motors I have on order? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Travis Hershberger Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 What size battery are you planning to use with that? Glad I'm not going to be racing that speedster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Carlton Dodd Posted November 30, 2015 Author Share Posted November 30, 2015 Travis Hershberger I'm not even a racer! I'm going to try flying this LOS with a 1200mAh 3S battery. I just can't resist building these things! (Thank goodness for cheap Chinese parts.) Should I try to find some 3" props? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Travis Hershberger Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 The props you made should be fine. I was thinking about how fast those motors are going to be turning. 3600 rpm per volt x 11 volts = 39600 rpm. Yes you'll be limited to LOS, but that thing will hustle!
