RC-Monster Forums - View Single Post - I wanted to check my brushless calculations

For the voltage, you put 16.8v. This number is definitely too high for any calculations based on 4s Lipo (or is that for 14 cells?). What I usually do is put down 3.5v/cell for voltage and 30amps for the current (so that the resistance is factored into the kv).
