Would a 15t Pinion with an align 3550KV motor with a 3s lipo be too much for the titan?
According the the calculator:
Right now I am running 13t and getting about 3074 HS
With a 15T Pinion I would get around 3546 HS

15 teeth pinion will be to much, 13 will give you the desired HS of 3000rpm

anything over 3000RPM on this is just silly really. Collective management

If you go with that insane headspeed, make sure you use metal blade grips and carbon fiber blades...

Yes, of course it's silly, but wow the heli will really dance!
Mine runs 3700 at full throttle, and I tell you what, it's the most exhilarating heli I've ever flown!

I overspeed the head once and the heli expoloded in mid air and ate itself. $300US later on a mini titan I learnt my lesson! Only the electronics survived

running 2800 rpm h.s. w/ Blattschmied Ultra-Blades ( good for 3500 ), sometime I run 3200 when using a 4S Setup ( 500 th, 12 T, Jazz 40-6-18 at 65% ). Need it only when dancing in heavy weather. Normaly on 3S Iīm running 2650 headspeed, itīs enough and increases flighttime ( comparing to 3000 rpm : r.a. 2 minīs )
