I just crashed my Flightline OV-10... this time I believe was something in the "blue box" that locked up two servos. I really liked this plane and am thinking about getting another one. Any chance we can connect and I could ask you more questions about your upgrade? Thanks for the video.
Sure. First, I'd recommend going to the thread on RCG and reading my post(s) there. I think most of what you would need to know is provided there. If you still have questions, send me a PM there and I'll respond. www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?3577145-OV-10A-Bronco-from-FlightLine-RC-Motion-RC%2Fpage78
Unfortunately, I don't have a tool for checking RPM and I never did get around to testing amp draw numbers. My guess is a 40A ESC is more than enough, but I have some 60's in mine because it's what I had on-hand in my parts bin.
Yes. I just Y'd them together and removed the red connector from one of the leads. The Y lead is not heavy duty. It does not need to be since all it is sending is a simple signal to the ESC. The ESC gets power from the actual battery connectors.
I swapped out the stock props for slightly large 3-Blade - 11x7 Propeller by Master Air Screw: www.masterairscrew.com/products/3-blade-11x7-propeller Yes, I have one CW and the other is CCW.

enjoyed this video, do you recall rpm, amp draw or perhaps using a 3 blade 11x8 ??

@@ShadowVFX O.K thanks for the reply
@@ShadowVFX Did you use two esc"s with "Y" leads for throttle control with plus lead on one esc removed and was the "Y" lead heavy duty?Thanks
Yes. I just Y'd them together and removed the red connector from one of the leads. The Y lead is not heavy duty. It does not need to be since all it is sending is a simple signal to the ESC. The ESC gets power from the actual battery connectors.
@@ShadowVFX Thank you sir.
Can you advise on the props please did you buy two normal or one counter rotating?
