Im just curious because im use to the scorpion 6 on 3s. This motor peaks around 750 watts on hard puch outs where as the scorpion 8 was about 150 watts less. |

The 3S motor is great, but requires really powerful batteries (REAL 45C+) to be able to keep up.
I was running Gens Ace 25C and it was really bogging. With my new Desire Power 60C, it's a whole different thing. |

I know which scorpion motor is stock on 3s its the HK2221-12.
This motor is rated 400wats max cntinuous The stock Trex 450m pro motor is arted at 500 watts. Im surprised the nini protos motor is 100 watts less. That is a considerable amount. |

Also the 450m is rated at approx. 400 watts. It is the 450mx that has a higher watt rating and having seen the 450mx motors fly in several helis I cant help to think that the numbers are shall we say a bit inflated lol! |

I had a scorpion 8 rated at 45 amps and on a 450 pro and it was good but i wanted more power and torque so I went to scorpion 6 motor. scorpion 6 motor is unboggable on 450 pro and 3s lipo where as i could bog the scorpion 8 motor. form all comparisons the scorpion 8 motor and 450mx motor were similar in performance. Will the stock 3s motor for protos be enough or do I need to go 6s? |

Here is a comparison of all the scorpion motors available for 450 heli's on 3s
Please note the stock mini P motor is the scorpion hk2221-12 motor. As I suspected the 3s stock motor on mini p is not enough for hard 3d you will need to go the 4s motor . I will just go the the 6s set up. Each of the Scorpion HK-2221 helicopter motors are designed for specific performance on a certain number of Li-Po cells. The -6 model is the highest Kv, and is designed for maximum 3D performance on 3 Li-Po cells The -8 model is designed for Sport flying and moderate 3d on 3 Li-Po cells The -10 model is designed for Sport flying with a 4 blade head on 3 Li-Po cells, or as a max 3D motor on 4 Li-Po cells The -12 model is designed as a Sport and moderate 3D motor for 4 Li-Po cells The -1630 motor is designed for sport flying and moderate 3D on 6 Li-Po cells The -2010 motor is designed for extreme 3D on 6 Li-Po cells. If you intend on running a 3-cell Li-Po pack, then the HK-2221-6 is the highest power motor available, and you will want tu run a 60 amp ESC with it. |

The stock motor on mini p is rated at 400w on 3s. Its less powerful than the Trex 450 stock motor. Its unfortunate becasue of the mini P gearing the scorpion 12 motor is the only one you can use on 3s. |
