How about the AXI 5320 Hyperion 4045? That would be great fun ...

I was thinking of using the AXI 4130/20. Would this work? Would a 4200 maH 3S2P work?

Ben,

Seriously, you need to talk to Tony Stillman at Radio South. He has a Showtime 4D, and just finished an E-powered Brio(the 2m one, not the mini e-flite one).
You should be able to get some good info regarding your new project.

You're gonna want something with the power of a YS 110 for true 3D performance. Im thinking the AXI 5320 too. Should have unlimited vertical performance on 6cells.

I'll check in with him. Would you need a bigger LiPo pack for the 5320, or would the 4200 maH 3S2P work?

maybe two of them in series...LOL
I think you'll have a hard time getting that large a plane off the ground with 3cells.
Minimum of 6 most likely, and I think the 5320 can handle up to around 10cells...but dont quote me on that.

Even something like the 4130/16 would work for general aerobatics would be simular to putting a .91 in it. If it comes out at the weight you have listed, you might get pretty good performance out of it.
