Status: offline 		I am in the process of building a stand off scale model of the He-111 designed by Vance Mosher with 89" wingspan and an approximate weight of 16 pounds. I want to install twin electric motors for my model but I have no idea what motors to use, what speed controllers, batteries, propellers etc. Can you give me some advice? By the way I am from Bogotá, Colombia. Our city is at 8.700 feet above sea level. Thank you for your help.

Status: offline 		Two E-Flite 110 motors, Two Castle Creations HV-85 esc's, APC 15.75 x 13 x3 propellers, and 6s2P 4000+ 20C packs. According to Motocalc, would develope approx 18 pounds of thrust, a prop speed of around 70 mph, and draw approx 85 amps total for the two motors combined.

Smaller daimeter prop could be used to drop the amp draw, and still give you good performance even at your altitude.
