In need of information regarding ESC and Motor!

Firstly, I am running 4 Emax MT2205 II Race Edition motors. The spec sheet gives information for max amperage only in 12V systems and 16V systems with designated props. Here is the spec sheet for reference.

I have Turnigy Multistar 4s 14.8mv 1400mAh 40-80c battery that I'm going to be using with it.
The props I have chosen are,

The issue I'm having is understanding what ESC to choose. My battery is 14.8V and I'm not sure how to compute the max amperage the motor with output. I have seen similar setups on Youtube and they are using 20A linear BEC ESC. What are your thoughts on the Afro Race ESC and the Turnigy Plush 25A.

Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thank you all.

Mam you'll ever pull on these would likely be 20 amps, so a 20 amp ESC that supports 3s-4s should work.
 
Thank you very much for the quick response Mod. I'm going to run the 20A. I wish I could find one of those turnigy motor testers that give you the specs but not sure what they're called. Thanks again.
 
So I should be looking at a 25A ESC? Hey Jackson, any word on the timecop/simonK Afro ESC's? Trying to find an ESC with linear BEC and low voltage cutoff ect ect. I was looking at Turnigy Plush. So many damn options. Thanks.
 
Well if you are going to be pushing your ESCs hard a heat generating linear BEC is not a good choice.
