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

RE: help regarding power setup
well your plane will not fly at those power settings if they are correct as you described. its only about 1900 watts you need a bigger prop or one with more pitch. now you will not be able to get that plane to fly much over 30 minutes as heavy it is. you need a better plane to fly longer.
