Thanks aeajr!
That guide was so helpful that I decided to sign up at RCU and even referred you!
There are still a few questions however..
Well, when I look at the chart for the geared speed 400 I see that,
regardless of prop, at 7.4V I am not going to have enough voltage (
pressure) to push
13 amps into this motor. So the 2 cell lithium won't meet my performance
goal of 100 watts+ per pound using this gear box.
This is still a bit fuzzy. So do motors require a minimum voltage to pull certain amount of amps from the battery?
As for the chart, is this the same chart you provided earlier? If so, that was a dead link
Are there other charts you can refer me to?
I've read about wing loading here and there. Does that come into play when determining a power system for your plane?
Thanks!
