My CPP is a fat 410 grams with the battery. Flies great (for my noob skills) I'm using TP 1320 battery for added power with the BL tail. Is there a more powerful 300 class BL motor or BL 400 that will work on the CPP this heavy? With the two ESC's, CNC head, super skids modded battery plate and the BL tail I could really use some more zip. Any ideas? I hate to attempt my first role or loop and end up in an unholy union with the ground.

I undestand that you want to use a bigger battery perhaps for the runtime it offers. However, by the time you find a motor that can make your heli as nimble as a lighter one, your runtimes would have gone down as well. Physic dictate that as you increase power, so will consumption. So it is possible that matching the power to weight ratio of a lighter heli and a 4100kv motor will yield the same runtime too.

Any suggestions on a more powerful motor?

Well, youcould always go up to the TREx motors, THAT would get more power, and they operate in the same speed range:
430L -link (http://www.helidirect.com/product_info.php?products_id=602)
430XL - link (http://www.helidirect.com/product_info.php?products_id=2995)
But these use larger shafts and a TON more battery power...
You could look HERE (http://www.aeromicro.com/Catalog/brushless_motors_107406_products.htm) since they have a TON of motors, but it's hard to say what will be more powerful. (they don't list wattage in any easy place to see)
