## Motor and prop stuff
Here are the things I know about motors and propellers:
- The larger and steeper the propeller, the harder it is for the motor to turn.
- The more KV the motor is, the faster it turns, and the harder it is for it to turn.
- The harder the motor has to turn, the more current it draws, and the hotter it gets.
- The larger the (physical) size of the motor, the more heat it can dissipate.
- If the motor gets too hot, some part of it may melt. This ruins the motor.
- The smaller a propeller, the more quickly it can turn, and the more it can accelerate.
- The larger a propeller, the more efficient it is.
