101 29-Jul-2020, 03:44 PM (This post was last modified: 29-Jul-2020, 03:45 PM by hugnosed_bat.) i would give a lightweight one a try, i beleive it could give probably better performence from low uaw about vibrations, just in the case some would decrease the performence.
what direction of weight will the build have?
edit; you still dont know what weight the build will have or what weight the lipo will add?

793 What gauge wire are you using for the LiPo XT60 pigtail soldered to your ESC? From your photo it looks quite thin.

793 The rule of thumb I follow is to use the same gauge wire as fitted to the LiPo itself. You can sometimes go slightly smaller, but if you want to avoid any "bottlenecks" then use the same gauge wire as on the LiPo.

793 Yes, 22AWG wire is way too small for a 5" or 6" props. Personally I would use 12AWG wire but some people use the smaller 14AWG wire. I wouldn't use anything smaller than 14AWG.
