Prop JC Super Propr 20-14

Thrust-12.0 pounds (with possible prop stalled with zero in coming air flow)

14" battety to ESC, 6" ESC to Motor
Prop Xoar 20-14
Run time: 4:30 when I ended the test.
Amps-51.0
Watts-1522
RPM-4570

I stopped my testing as I was making way too much noise for the family.

Thanks for the great comments!

Well got about about a hour in tonight, got my shear webbing started, but what is really cool is look at my weight of my wing, and I still have not cut off the building tabs.
