My Posts This: Topic  Forum		What is the maximum allowable RPM that one can run the head with the plastic (metal re-enforced) grips at?

I am running 1950 RPM and would like a bit more.


Thank you.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		I used to run my caliber 5 at 2100 RPM. Flies great at that RPM. I would still be flying it and wouldn't have gotten a 600N if I hadn't had a mid air with a 100cc plane. Amazing how much energy a blade has.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Rappy Boy,

Thank you very much for the information.

Looks like I need to go on a quest for a larger pulley or a higher KV motor.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		I've also ran 2100 on the stock Caliber5 with no issues.
I now run 1950 and have been for quite sometime.
The higher KV sounds like the easier route.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		I took the ESC on the Caliber 700 out of governor mode and just set it up like my other electrics. I got about 2100 RPM on the head in a hover and it has quite a bit more zap to it now.

Thank you all for the information!
