| Measured with the app below, using the motor 3508-700KV Turnigy Multistar 14 Pole Brushless and a 14x5.5 carbon propeller.

|
| |
|
| With 11 V supply (3 lipo cells).
| | Calibration is used using a calibration version of firmware and a calibration app from Prop Shield manufacturer. |
| From 1.1ms to the ESC (idle) to 1.9ms almost full throttle. The ESC update frequency is 400 Hz.

|
| |
|
| With 11 V supply (4 lipo cells). note that 30 amps is not sustainable, the motor gets hot fast.
| | == ESC calibration == |
|
| |
|
| === Trust 3508-700 14x5.5 ===
| | The drone control uses ESC pulse width from 1 to 2 ms, and all ESCs should be calibrated to use this range. |
|
| |
|
| Transfer gain measurement from ESC pulse width to trust.
| | [[ESC calibration]] |
| The Hobby Wing controller is calibrated to 1ms=off, 2ms=full power.

| | == Propeller - motor performance == |
| | |
| Normal size propeller (14x5.5) for the motor. The translation for ESC pulse to trust is almost linear.
| |
| The trust increases with the square of the rotation speed, but drag increases with power 3 of the rotation speed, so end result is almost linear.
