Default DW 48" Yak

Decided to give the 48" DW Yak a try and wanted to know what gear everyone is using..

This is what Ive come up with so far:

Hs 65's
Scorpion 3014-1040
CC 35A ESC

Not sure of what size prop would be best...

12x3.8SF seems to be a popular choice.

Great! I love the 38"er, and the 48 will be even better! The scorpion motors are great, and have more power than you can use! :-) Have fun!

Actually, a 12x6 would be a better selection for the 48" kits. I've been told the 12x3.8SF can pull more than 40 amps on some of the motors, and aren't intended for more than 400 watts
