I put the information into propCalc and got the following: Max Current 50A Thrust/Weight ratio 1.16 Pitch speed 58mph. Mixed flight time 4 min Dropping to an 11x4 prop gives: Max current 38A Thrust/Weight ratio 0.9 Pitch speed: 42mph Mixed flight time: 4.4 mins Personally, I would opt for an 11x4 prop a 50A ESC minimum and a bigger battery. Alternatively use a lower kV motor and an 11x6 prop as in the 4-Max recommendation. Approx figures for this are Max Current 28 Thrust/weight ratio 0.8 Pitch speed: 48mph Mixed flight time: 5.6 min

Dx6 unless you can afford something from the NX range. If you buy used get it checked by a Spektrum service technician. I would recommend Al's Hobbies from personal experience.

A quick temporary fix can be achieved using duck tape.

Methods for repairing ducks' feet can be found on the web. But it's not something I've dabbled in.

Will the repair be cheap or will there be a large bill?

Was the damage the result of fowl play?

ELECTRIC MOTOR IDENTIFICATION HELP
Shaun Walsh replied to GARY BLANDFORD-HULL's topic in Electric Flight for Beginners
Plese take note of the recommended prop sizes. This is a relatively high kV motor and you don't want to exceed the recommended maximum prop rpm. https://www.apcprop.com/technical-information/rpm-limits/?v=79cba1185463 -
ELECTRIC MOTOR IDENTIFICATION HELP
Shaun Walsh replied to GARY BLANDFORD-HULL's topic in Electric Flight for Beginners
Might be easier just to replace it with another motor, at least you can then be sure of the specifications. Something like this. https://www.hyperflight.co.uk/products.asp?code=ADH-C20-FM&name=adh-c20-mm1908-2050-2050-rpm-v-26g-front-mount-outrunner -
How rough a flying field can you fly from
Shaun Walsh replied to Adrian H's topic in All Things Model Flying
I fly at my local cricket club, the outfield is as smooth as a baby's posterior.
