My first Compass heli, Warp360

[wacojoe]

Well maybe, hopefully!
I had to travel to Santa Monica, CA for work for the week. In my spare time I visited a local hobby shop and took a Warp360 with me. So today I packed all my stuff up and headed home to Michigan. I'm so excited to assemble this bird I can't hardly stand it. When I arrive at Lansing, MI airport I'm waiting at baggage claim for my two checked luggage bags and one of them is missing. OMG! I'm so pissed right now. Hour and fifteen minutes later I finally got to leave, with a receipt, telling me they will drop off my baggage at home tomorrow. So here it was Sunday 11:30pm I walk out to my car to find out I have a flat tire. Nice! So I'm out of smokes, flat tire, low on gas, my baggage is missing. What a bummer. I had to put the spare tire on and it was 39 deg.F. out. I was not dressed for winter weather had I just come from sunny southern CA. My plan was to put my jacket when I arrived in Michigan, well that was in the lost baggage. I could not catch a break today! ----------------END OF RANT---------------.

So, the Only Warp kits they had in stock was the airframe only kit. I was wondering if anyone here has setup their Warps on 4 cell? I have a scorp 2212-10 "Next D" motor. It came with my Rave 450 kit.

My plan is to use this setup for starters-
Scorpion 2212-10
Castle Ice50
Cyclic ds410
Tail 9257
AR7200BX
DX8
Radix blades
KBDD tails

Any advise is welcomed. Anybody here work for Delta? I will keep my comments to myself. ;-)

With the Warp's 135T main gear, even the "small" 16T pulley would be way too big for that motor (3,000kv?).

The 2221-2010 would be more of a 4S motor for the Warp. Not sure how well it would work on a 4S being it is intended as a 6S motor to be used with different gearing. But if you're going to buy a whole new motor, may as well go with 6S, unless you have a bunch of 4S batts laying around.

You would have to go to 3s and 16t to use the 2221-10. Even that is not ideal gearing.

(calculated for 100% throttle curve)
Hover RPM at beginning of flight: 4190
Hover RPM at middle of flight: 3859
Hover RPM at end of flight: 3724

Governed:
For + performance, keep req. RPM below: 3388
For target performance, keep req. RPM below: 3524
For - performance, keep req. RPM below: 3625

6s is really the way to go it is so much more efficient I have awesome power without noticeable sag. Even my 4s 450 I couldn't say that about
