Curb my enthusiasm ;-)

Hi,

I am in the process of building a Octocopter that I need to handle at least 8kg MTOW. I got a frame from HobbyKing and after LIMITED research thought I'll go with Tiger Motor 400kv motors. I am also using AurdoCopter2.5. I am now stuck with these massive / heavy motors and would like some advice on what ESC (I think they should be 40Amp without BEC?) and most important, what propellers. I used the online calculator and looks like my most eficiant optiin will be 13x6.5 props. 3691098232?profile=originalAny tips on this one? I realise my flying time will probably not exceed 12 minutes, but I'll fix that on the next build ;-)

Thanks in Advance

Anton

    Is this your first build?
    • Yes,

      Have been flying for a while and ding maintenance on work UAVs but thought I'd build something for myself.
