I want to run a Kontronik Tango 45-07 on 10S with 620MB and wondered what kind of amp draw I would see as constant and peak.

Any help would be appreciated.

I only need one!

I've never run the combination, so my opinion is suspect. And I can't give actual amp draw numbers, having never seen a data log of the set-up.

With that said, the Tango is not a MORE powerful motor than the usual out-runner motors commonly used on today's 10S systems. And, most 10S systems pushing 600 class blades do fine with Jive 80HV ESC's and the like, so that should a least give you an idea of what you'll need.

I ran the 45-07 in my 3DMP on 10S packs and a kontronik 55 amp speed controller for 3 years with no problems.
Also had it fitted to my logo 14, also on 10S and still using the kontronik 55-10-32 ESC and spinning 600mm blades. I occasionally used an eagle tree logger, and never ever saw a peak of more than 80 amps, and that is with my poor and mistimed stick stirring I call 3D
The tango motors are incredibly efficient, and draw substantially less than other motors in their class (Scorpion 4035, Z-Power Z50 etc)
When I moved to the more powefull motors, I lost a fair bit of flight time which is obviously a result of the higher current draw.
If your not after an out and out powerhouse, I'm certain you will be more than happy with the tango in a 10S model

thanks for the information; that is exactly what I was looking for. I wanted to run the Tango 45-07 with a Jazz 55-10-32 on 10S and most people at my field were saying it could not be done. I fly 3D and feel that my collective management is above par. the motor is rated at constant 50amp draw and 70amp peak which the ESC can handle. so I am settled and will be buying a 45-07 and 55-10-32 for my Logo600. the 45-07 makes 3HP peak which is more than enough for me (90 size power with a heli 3lbs lighter ).

I only need one!

BEFORE YOU ORDER IT!!!

I just got done replacing that combo in my logo and I never look back now. I end up getting the Tango 45-07 too hot and one of the magnets came unglued! i would suggest a different motor as they get too hot for that kind of setup. Just my opninion.

Really surprised at that.
The tango in my 3DMP and the one in my Logo 14 were cool to the touch after 5 minutes of getting a hard time.
Also, the only motor that has ever lost its magnets for me was an actro, and that probably had something to do with dropping it on a hard floor
Are you planning buying new, or second hand.
If second hand, there are some great deals out there on tango's and 55-10-32's which will save you an absolute packet, but if new, I would also suggest reviewing your purchase.
Let us know which so we can advise
