Tekin RX8/ 1700 kv T8 on 3600mAh 5s.
The baseline setup is decent but I would look into either the Thielke setup or the Jarosz setup I have ran both of them and they have both worked. The Thielke setup suits my style a little better and I liked it better on the outdoor track.
Let me know how you like the 1700 on 5s setup. I have been thinking about dropping down to 5S. I am currently running a 1400kv on 6S and it is more then enough.
Here is a link to the setups I was referring to.
