Are these reliable? Good company?

Thank you for your reply,
I know, when I said 14.8, I was referring to the volt input. What I was wondering is that if the 5040 props draw less than 12 amps on 14.8 volts input, what would be the amp draw on a fully charged 4s?
Thank you,

Does this look good?

Thanks for the fast reply.
How much gain in power and speed do I get with 4s over 3s? I know that the original BLHELI escs supported 2-4s. How long is not long?

Thanks for your reply,
Are there any escs you recommend? This is pushing my budget a bit, as I don't want to go above 275. Would the original setup work? I have seen some youtube videos of this build functioning with 4s. Is this maybe not super healthy, but do-able with the original parts...
Thank you for your reply,
When you say lower kv, bigger props I assume you are saying that in terms of amp draw? The way I understand it (and please correct me if I'm wrong) is that lower kv means the motors spin slower, allowing for a bigger prop to produce more thrust but not more amp draw...
Thank you for your reply,
Is a 2206 size motor too big for the weight? I don't plan to over-prop so I'm not sure of the torque required. Also, does a motor's cell rating really hard enforced? Or can a motor that says 2-3s run a 4s battery? My budget is very small as I just lost about 250...
Hello everyone,
This is my second quad build as my first one flew away for some reason... I am a bit of a noob still.
I am trying to build this second quad to be leaner and faster than the old one with a 4s lipo on it.
