Thanks so much for the detailed response. You mention that you should try a different prop. You feel it’s currently over-propped with the 156 2-blade? Is it not giving you enough torque? What pitch is your 156mm prop?

The 6384’s I’ve seen are spec’d for 24-36V. I was wondering if they would handle 50V. Sounds like yours is - right?

So at 50V and 120KV, you should be seeing 6000 RPM unloaded. Assuming a 6" pitch prop (just my guess) that you puts you at a theoretical 34 mph - maybe a real world 27 mph. Does that feel about right?

And the real big question. Did you have any trouble setting up that motor/ESC combination? I’ve got some experience with VESC controllers, but I’m helping a buddy out with his project, and we finally gave up on his Flipsky setup because there was absolutely nothing we could do with hardware, firmware, or configuration to get that setup to perform properly under load.

Again - thanks very much for all that detail.
