Oh my, with those motors and that weight Jack it ought to go like a rocket!!! What are you going to use for a battery? I think you will probably need to put maybe two 3S-2200s in parallel to supply enough current especially if you let me test fly it

10*6 Props installed now, also had to calibrate the ESC range, on the throttle, so they would arm, and run together.
Nice...

I'm really surprised that 8x6 wasn't good enough with those motors Jack.

Yea, they were probably fine Rick, it was the ESC timing that was the problem.
I'll leave the 10*6 on for now, lotsa lift.
