Hi, i have a question for Bruce regarding the AXN.. You have a 6x5 prop but would a 6.5x5 be okay to use instead? I have the hobbyking 20amp 3a esc and i am wondering it will become over loaded..

I have posted this question on the hobbyking forum.

Hi,I'm not Bruce,but I have a 6x4 prop on my axn,and that pulls about 18-20A.I use a 25/30 esc.Presumably,6.5x5 will overload the esc.Even the stock 5x5 propellor can overheat a 20a esc,which is why Bruce advocates the use of a 30a esc.
