Hey Matt. Tere tere! Greetings from a bloody cold Estonia! Great great video and just the tonic to go with my gin ( love the infectious accent!). I've never modelled before (well, only on a cat walk darling), but always promised myself to get into it (!). And so here goes.... the start of my vertical learning curve "@ full knacker"! I'll keep you posted.....
Things I picked up on. KV is 'unloaded' rpm/volt. Motor winding thickness is a manufacturing choice, higher KV does not mean lesser thicker windings, just less windings of the chosen wire.
Quick question if anyone's reading this (hope so lol) I have an ESC with 3 blue cables coming out of it marked A, B, and C. I have a brushless motor with a red, a black and a blue cable coming out of it. (On the other side of the ESC, obviously, there is a black and red cable and a RC controller cable, but that's another story ;)) Do I need to guess which cable goes where? Is my ESC and motor incompatible? Or should I be connecting them differently? Thanks in advance, Gemberkoekje
you got 3 phase= temporary hook up all 3 wires in any order= with blades off- turn on motor and see direction is correct/if backwards... swap any!!!! 2 wires= it will turn the other way ! very safe. ! :>)
The motor comes with screws to connect the motor mount cross to the motor but no screws for the outside part to connect to the motor mount. What am I supposed to do?
Hey Sam, that prop is too big. 2200kv means a 6x4 prop and maybe smaller on 4S if a smaller motor. Also a 40A esc is enough, I've seen mine spike at 37A on 4S with a 6x4. Hope that helps Sam, Matt

The set Looks great Matt!!
Best learning video I’ve seen ever !!!
How come the Facebook link no longer works ???
Hi I am looking for some help on u15xxl kv29 Can you help me calculate how much power and what battery configuration will be needed for 4 of these?
Hi Matt. Great video thanks. Would the Sunnysky combo work on the Mini Drak (not looking for a fast setup)? Thanks.

Plane esc's have a bec in them where as a quad esc does not require it they have
Howdy Mike, whoopsy, missed an obvious one there 😂
Great info!
Hi I’m running turnigy 28/26 2200kv motor with 7x5 prop and a 60amp Esc with 2200mah 4s battery on a h-king bixler 2 will this be ok ?

@@RagTheNutsOff can we use 3 inch prop with 2200kv motor any reply will help me
q:- how do you set the brake on an esc as i never done that before
Hey Nigel, see here ua-cam.com/video/qYHJgg_vvSQ/v-deo.html (a fantastic channel)
I never done it before as well but I am pretty sure you need to program that with ESC and not all ESC can do that, or receiver to tell ESC
Matt, what dose FVP mean?
FPV - First Person View. You fly the plane via a live camera on the front of it, transmitted back to you on the ground , wearing goggles.
