Getting started with eCalc but no DJI presets.

I'm looking to do a build and came across eCalc to help select my parts. To get the hang of it I tried entering the details for what I know flies successfully - my DJI 550. The trouble was, none of the settings came up and I can't find the specific details anywhere. As a newbie I have no clue what 'no-load Current' or 'Limit (up to 15s)' means and nowhere I look seems to offer those specific detaiuls. So in vain I enter options I think my be similar - Random 920kv motors and 30Amp ESCs.


When I click calculate I get lots of warnings about outlandish figures I have entered that will crash the MC immediately or burn it out.




I'm reluctant to rely on it until I can get sense of a real world example.

Any suggestions on finding F550 specs or another route to learning more about using eCalc?

For the 550 I am using all the standard DJI Parts and don't plan on changing them. I only refer to those as a way of seeing how eCalc works. My plan is to do a more DIY Octo build from scratch.
