Default Got a Motor and ESC - will they fit?
So in the various raffles that occurred at the IRCHA Jamboree this year, I scored a Scorpion motor and ESC.
Motor: HKII 2221-2010
ESC: Commander 5V to 17V, 45A

Will they fit a Protos 380?

Think the kv is too high and esc might work but marginal. I don't think you will be able to pinion it down enough.

Fair enough, was just hoping. To Ebay!

Aside from the kv, the motor is very small. Even 2520/2618 is on the small side for the 380

Even being biased towards Scorpion motors I still can't recommend one for this heli. Xnova 2820-890 is the perfect motor for it.
