Dear Flyers, I am considering a park 450 outrunner in the gp 10 size yak ,is this motor sufficent.I also would like to use the 20 amp esc that I already have . But if this is not possible I would considder getting the 480 size motor,what esc is best for this set up and cxan I Get away with the 20 esc.Proberbly considdering running a 10-7 prop.I am also looking to fly sport with very little 3d flying jsut looking to basicly have an all around good flying sport plane for the park.

It is better to have some extra power in reserve than to have to thrash every last ounce out of a marginal motor. Of course I would advise a Phoenix 35 (and the PHX Programming link) for the 480, but there are lots of suitable and cheaper ESC's out there. Markus from www.gobrushless.com seem to be good.

I have a 480 with a Phoenix 35 in my Reactor using an APC 11x3.8 and 12x6 with out problem, plenty of power.
