eCalc Guides — sizing & practice
Practical guides for sizing electric RC drives — multicopters, airplanes and licensing. Each article answers a real search intent and links to the matching eCalc calculators.
Primary tools: xcopterCalc, propCalc, perfCalc, cgCalc.
- Size a multicopter drive: hover throttle & thrust-to-weight
- Propellers for frame size: largest prop that fits
- Flight time and LiPo sizing
- Motor overheating: what the calculation shows
- Kv vs prop diameter — calculate, don’t guess
- Coax vs flat: hexa and octo tradeoffs
- Airplane drive with propCalc and perfCalc
- Center of gravity before maiden with cgCalc
- Setup too marginal: 15 s peak limits and headroom
- Private vs commercial use and license
