Matching FC/PDB ESC's and Motors

[the_hack]

My son has the Betaflight F3 integrated flight controller/PDB. The PDB has a max current of 100a continuous.

His motors have a max draw of 27a.

He wants BlHeli_32 ESC's, so he's choosing between 25a and 35a.

Is there any point to getting the 35's or is that more than the PDB can deliver anyway?

Hi Hack,
Is your son using 3s or 4s batteries?
Based on my very limited experiance, the 35 amp esc's are pretty much the standard for racing quads that use 3s or 4s batteries....it seems to be better to buy something that is capable of handling more than necessary as opposed to pushing the electronics to their limit because they ALL have their limits. A esc failing in mid flight can get really ugly really quick...
