As title, looking for advice on a meaty outrunner and speedo please.
What voltage are you thinking? I have one of these, but it needs a 10-12s LiPo really. Solid motor though. https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-...size-heli.html
Was thinking 3s but am realising there's not much about at that voltage in the larger sizes. Was umming and arring about putting the blade straight onto the motor...
5s is probably the most common and easy to use voltage for a spinner in feathers, any of the motors in the 6s/1+kw range on hobbyking could do the trick.
Also putting a blade straight onto a motor in featherweight scale, without being heavily modded, would die on the first hit almost definitely
I've snapped brushless shafts with nothing more than the pulley on them. You need extra support and you want to go as high a voltage as you can manage.
Ok no worries.
6s can be plenty enough, HW3 gets to some crazy speeds with 6s and limits. Don't direct drive however, you'll ruin the motor easily - even beetleweights using that trick break themselves
