What type of prop should I use for a quadcopter on 3 lipo cells?

I'm no expert and can only talk of personal experiences. I would recommend an 8 x 4. I tried 10 x6 and found that it is too unstable trying to come back down it tends to develop a nasty wobble and led to a crash. The 8 x 4 is nice and stable.

9x6 slow flier should do quite nicely. I have run all the way up to an 11x7 slow flyer on it without even a hint of an issue. The motor can handle a lot more punishment than you could probably give it.....the speed controller is another story. Cooling will also kill a speed control. On a quad copter you should be good. Hope this helps.

I get about 5 minutes, but I use the E-filte 200mah 25c and 30c lipos. It is a great flying plane, but slightly more fragile than normal because of its size. I recommend it!

No. You will need a 3 cell lipo battery. You will also need to start upgrading parts as a 3 cell will start breaking stock parts.

A lipo battery pack, you can get them at any remote control hobby store or on Amazon

If you are talking about for flying FPV with rc...then when you have your lipo battery powering your video transmitter, the vtx is hooked up to the mobius usb video out cord. You do have to take a wire out so that all three ground, video and power are aligned to your vtx. If you are streaming and flying or driving there will be a little lag in the throttle response and the video might be slightly distorted or have a jello effect. But there is a seperate device that comes with immersion or fatshark vtxs...

the included NiMH batteries are worthless anyway. They have a lot of upkeep, won't keep a charge, require discharging before charging. I suggest upgrading to a LiPo battery http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FZ20HZG/ and charger BASTENS easy to use fast LiPo battery balance charger 4Amp 1 2 3 4 cell batteries connectors included for 3DR Iris+ Aero Parrot AR Drone DJI Phantom XT60 Traxxas Losi EC3 Deans mini & standard Tamiya

A 2S Lipo is best for this system, I would not go 3s as it will fry the esc

Yes, there are several that will work. I'd suggest a 800-850mah one like this..... http://www.amazon.com/SHIP-Lipo-Battery-7-4v-planes/dp/B00G3VV6M6/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid;=1390532644&sr;=8-8&keywords;=850mah+7.4v+lipo . But keep in mind the longer you run with a larger mah battery, the hotter the motors will get. I'd just get several quality 700mah, 7.4v lipo with a 20-30c rating. You can find good batteries for under $8 each all over the net.I'm using a Genesis Power 450mah 7.4v lipo with a 25c discharge from one of my planes and it lasts just as long as the stock battery but it's lighter and was only $5.

Depends on various factors. Normally Lipo will last longer and let you recharge batterry more. For RC cars, Lipo is a must. I would not buy any other RC car that wont run on Lipo.

I would say 30-40mph. Probably over 50 with a 3cell lipo, but watch the motor temperature. You can't go all out all the time with a 3 cell lipo or you will cook the motor

I would recommend the The Hubsan X4 H107D FPV Quadcopter Crash Pack which includes blades and battery.

Well, let's start from the beginning. What plane are you using, how big, weight, that's what you need to know before adding up battery amps and props. But for my personal use, I only put 3cell 11.1v max for the battery and the really depends on the plane. I have ran 8 inch props up to 12. But for small planes somewhere In 5,6,7 inch size.

You are going to need a transmitter receiver combo, the other big one is a lipo battery 3cell. With that battery you will need a charger and battery tester. I would recommend a small tester that can be mounted while you are flying. The reason is that if you run a lipo too low on charge then the battery will not hold a charge anymore or worse it will burst into flames. I hope this helps.

The motor will handle 3 s lipo but the esc is only rated for 2 s lipo. That battery will burn up the esc

Oh yea it will! Your rustler will just plain get it with this set up! I would just run a 2s lipo though, until you want to make people cry :) I would also recommend the castle link so you can program it with your computer. You will need to set it to the nihm setting and then change it back to lipo so you will be able to run it until you get your lipos.

In a Phantom 2 the Tx would tie in the FPV board $12. On the receiver use whats powering your monitor or a LiPo. I use a 2200mah velcroed to the back of my monitor.

I would recommend at least a 2S lipo battery, you won't be sorry. Tested with a NiMh, but I got a lot more power and runtime with a 2S lipo. I didn't bother to reprogram the ESC just to have the NiMh as a spare, so it's been in storage ever since.
