Wondered if anyone could help with choice of ESC for a 3510 700kv motor?
I thought it would be a straightforward 30A esc - but there are options which are getting me confused :dejection:
I guess there are a few Q's : 1) do i need to flash (or buy pre-flashed) SimonK esc's for multirotor ( eg would these need to be flashed? http://www.multirotor.co/product_info.php?cPath=6_83&products_id=101 )
2) Are the Opto's worth paying extra for? http://www.multirotor.co/product_info.php?cPath=6_82&products_id=154
3) These are pre-flashed with SimonK ( http://www.multirotor.co/product_info.php?cPath=6_84&products_id=218 ) - would i need to check the version and possibly upgrade before use?
Also - eCalc shows that I need upto about 23A - so these 25A should be ok for size - BUT is there any disadvantage of going to 35A?? ie Is it possible to have 'too much' headroom on the ESC sizing?
Thanks - really appreciate any help or comments. :apologetic:
