Whatever you do when you go brushless don't use the Belt CP combo. It haa a tendency to burn up the 20A ESC. The volcano 30Aand alpha 3500kv combo should work good or any 3500Kv with at least a 25A ESC. You might also want to get a Telebee gyro for it as well. It's much better than the stock. Happy landings

Not familiar with that set up. Main thing is to make sure that the ESC has higher rated A than the motor. That's constant A. Burst is usually 100% more than constant A.
Happy landings

Dooz, I remember those graphic pics...News at 11 stuff for sure. I try to erase them from my memory, but they are "burned" in there and, probably, always will be... Happy landings

I have been looking at the e-sky 3900, but found a 400X spec'd at 4000kv, 20 Amp current draw for $28.00. Either one of those motors will work fine in the K2, just make sure you get at least a 30A esc just to be safe. And don't use an Esky esc or you might end up with a 'Blazing Bee'

That looks like a great combo...Really, too good for the HBK2 IMHO. Good news is that you'll be able to use in your next heli; a kit. ;D
Happy landings
