Leon Shulman's Zomby ?
In the June issue of Model Aviation, page 58, Mr. Shulman offer's his plan for a blue foam Zomby. He uses an AXi 2208-34 motor together with a Jeti 8 amp ESC. The next larger Jeti is a 12 amp unit, without that much price difference. Being an electric "newbie", would it be to my advantage to select the larger 12 A. ESC ? Or .... Would the 8 A. ESC be perfectly adequate. He uses a 2 cell lipo. Is anyone else out there using a similar set-up, and any additional information for improving the system in this plane would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help.

I suggest that you take a conservative approach and go for the larger ESC. If your current draw hits the ESC limit it may cause a shutdown of power and possible loss of a plane. Alas, this has happened to me.
