Hey guys.

If anyone knows the formula or method to find the lift created by the motor/propeller combination then please let me know.
Waiting.........

SSR, go to APC's site. I believe they have lift values calculated for their various propellers with motor examples also provided. If you can't find the charts then just shoot them an email and they'll send .pdf files with the info.
Are you in Pakistan? Your IP address gives a location of Pakistan. What's it like flying RC in Pakistan? I fly over from time to time on commercial flights into India but would love to know more about the hobby in general in Pakistan. The mountains are unbelievably beautiful.

Are you talking about this?

@ Bartman.
First tell me what is APC?

Secondly yes i am from Pakistan(Karachi). It is right that there isn't much work going on on RC in Pakistan, but still there are many students doing there projects in that area and i am the one which is making my final year project(university) a Quad copter.
Well the mountains and other stuff in the northern areas are really beautiful but they are abandoned by the government.

Yo SSR

How cool would it be to fly a multirotor up the Baltoro Galcier and turn it up and left in to Concordia to see K2 filling your lens.. Been there many years ago, Baltistan is an amazing place and amazing people!

No the link is not what I was thinking about.. I am sure if you PM matwell he will point you in the right direction. I think the link was in the thread Prop and more props

APC is a make of propeller http://www.apcprop.com/v/index.html
