The thing to realize is that even the most experienced electric folks (people like Ashta bhai) use a wattmeter to see what exactly happens in terms of current draw on their setups. 

You really need to get one, and use it !

22xx motor with 20 amp esc and 1000 mah 3cell is more then enough for a slow stick....

Friends call me "Bakya"



Almost everyone at our field fly slowstick and almost everyone uses this motor for it:

Towerpro 2410-12T

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=668

I use this motor with mystery 30A, 1800 Turnigy 3S 20C, GWS RD 11X4.7 Or 10x4.7

Has worked well for me till now  Thumbs Up

Just have a look at this url : http://www.flybrushless.com/motor/view/569.

You will find that you are using the wrong prop. Ideally you should use an APC SF 7x4 or 7x5 prop which should give you the maximum efficiency. But then you may find the velocity or forward speed too high. Therefore the best compromise would be a 8x4 prop. The 2822/24 1450Kv motor is meant for a maximum of 10 amps. Even a 9x4.7 would work out nicely. With a prop of 10x4.7, the load required by the motor to rotate would go up considerably above the maximum limit of both the motor and the esc.

I assume that the motor that you have got is similar to the spec in the URL above.

I too have a SlowStick. I am using a Roxy motor with a 1200Kv and 3SP1 2200MaH battery, 20amp ESC and a 9x4 prop. The handling is very good. Earlier I was using a 2408 with a 1200MAH battery and 10x4.7 prop which I later reduced to 9x4, because I felt that the motor was heating up. Eventually, I had a motor burnout. With the Roxy motor I have plenty of power and no issues of motor heating.

There is no point is getting disappointed here. Rather, I would suggest learn from your mistakes and make life beautiful.
Happy Flying

Exactly, its all matter selecting the right motor prop combo. On a slow flyer, if your motor is heating up then you are wasting battery power, its better to prop down in that case.

If you have not already bought your electronics, why don't you buy a tested setup like the one suggested by bokilap.
