Status: offline 		The new smaller U Can Do plane looks nice and has a great price for a 3D ARF!

To e-power it, you have a wode range of choices that are determined by your performance expectations and budget.

I would price range a power system from $200 to $400.

Here is one example of a high-end power system for it from [URL=http://www.maxcim.com/]MaxCim Motors[/URL]. You can look in the [URL=http://www.maxcim.com/customers/index.html]Sample Applications[/URL] page for a similar size and weight aerobatic plane.

Can you determine the maximum prop size that you can swing?

why not go for the "Diablotin" setup

Hacker B50 13s 6,7:1 18x8 prop on 14xSanyo2600HR

this setup will give you a ~5,5lb AUW and almost 10lb thrust.

not sure exactly how big thsi plane is, but if it is a bit smaller then the diablotin you just switch to a B50 11S on 12x2600 still swinging a 18x8

flight times would also be pretty good.
