Super Decathlon convert to brushless help!
Hey guys I have a super decathlon airplane that I want to convert over to brushless and lipo can anyone give me suggestions on what size motor, esc, lipo would fit and if this is even possible with the older (red) super decathlon. I am very new to r/c airplanes but have been racing r/c cars for a long time. So basically not sure what size motor I would want for this and what speed (kv rating) would be good for a beginner/intermediate flyer. Also what amperage esc would I need to power this motor. And finally how exactly does the gearing work on a plane I know how it works for an r/c car but no clue when it comes to planes.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I understand they make a newer one thats brushless for relatively cheap but I would like to piece one together and learn in the process.
Thanks,
Willie
