Default help regarding power setup



hi



i'm converting a nitro plane to electric and need help with configuring the power and parts



the plane is mig-27 foam model covered with fiber glass. weight is about 10lb empty



as this is kind of a pig in the sky 1.8X1.7Meter i want it to fly as long as possible



for the moment the only information i found on net was this setup:



motor - hextronik hxt63-64b (280kv)



batt - 6s - which is good cause i already have 2 of those



prop - 20X8 - as my plane at the moment has no landing gear i thought about graupner cam folding prop



amp - 38.5



thrust - 6kg - which is kind of low for my plane (i guess)





any help regarding power setup will be much appreciated as i'm kind of new to the diy part of this great hobby and up until now i only had rtf planes
