I did a little test between these 2 sets of props today. In hover mode the APC props hovered with a gas of 510. Motor temps were as follows Motor 1 - 59-72 Motor 2 - 65-83 Motor 3 - 54-72 Motor 4 - 61-83 Motor 5 - 65-80 Motor 6 - 79-97 Motor 7 - 74-89 Motor 8 - 73-89 Flight time 10 minutes 5 seconds Max volt - 16.1 min volt 14.2 Average motor temp 66 After 15 minutes I made a flight with the Xoar 14X5's. In hover made the XOAR props hovered with a gas of 530. Motor temps were as follows Motor 1 - 47-65 Motor 2 - 51-73 Motor 3 - 48-64 Motor 4 - 55-73 Motor 5 - 50-73 Motor 6 - 57-85 Motor 7 - 49-71 Motor 8 - 53-77 Flight time 10 min 16 seconds Max volt - 16.1 min volt 14.0 Average motor temp 51 Motor 6 had the highest temp on both flights and had a 12 degree reduction in temp. I hovered about the same amount of time in both flights. My estimate was about 40 seconds on both runs just enough to get a real good gas reading in hover mode. It's interesting that the XOAR props look like they are about 3% less efficient in hover gas but flight time was pretty much the same with a very good reduction in motor temperature. This is exactly what I was looking for to solve my motor temperature problems.
Thanks Dave for this! Huge help Your APCs are balanced horizontally and vertically I assume? Mine from QC were not balanced.
Thinking of getting these and lowering the weight of my payload from 2.6lbs to 1.3. Should drastically see increases in flight time and in bl performance
