Tom, I just spotted your signature - which mentions 21lb AUW....
TEECEE, do whatever Tom says!!!!
Jay ah is right. ECalc is a tool for getting you some basic info when you're putting a quad together. Didn't you have this built or parts compiled by someone? They would most likely have the basic info you're looking for.
I think ink tom is probably correct. Get some more amp hours on that thing and you'll be off to the races. Seems like a well thought out machine...

Yeah. If you do a bit of research on C ratings, you'll realize the whole thing is pretty much bs. They can pretty much slap whatever C rating they want on there because testing for C rating is very much up in the air. Check out a thread at RC Groups about it - those guys even developed their own testing methods. I think GensAce lipos came out the best for most accurate C ratings.
We do about 21 lbs. on two Nanotech 8000mah 6s lipos. Doesn't get very warm. If your lipos are getting hot to the touch after a flight, then your C rating is too low. I think most people generally overshoot C rating by quite a bit to be on the safe side. Just adds weight and cost.
