RE: Need some advice/opinions on an unusual electric set up

Walt-

As for the potential of the motor, weight is the concern. You wouldn't fly around a .40 sized trainer with a .90 sized engine. Sure it would fly great at 1/4 stick, but why put all the...

RE: Need some advice/opinions on an unusual electric set up

I've actually used one of those before, and as I recall they recommend a much bigger prop in the 18-20" plus range. Also thats a pretty beefy motor, since I'm going with 2 I'm hoping to find...

RE: AXI 5320 with a 32 cell NIMH pack problem

I do know my cutoff is a little high, but the ESC is geared more for lipos so 30V was the best preset option offered, I will try lowering it. If discharged below .9V/cell under load, they should...

RE: AXI 5320 with a 32 cell NIMH pack problem

Hmm... well the pack are brand new and rated to 40 amps, so short of being defective I'm hoping they just need to be broken in. As for the ESC, its just that castle creations pheonix 85 HV with the...

RE: ASM C-130

Wayne-

Are you installing the retracts in your c-130? If you are I'd be very interested to see how they are set up.

Thanks

RE: electric marutaka b-25?

Yes I've flown a warbird before and several other planes I would guess to be more challenging then the b-25. I was previously thinking of 2 OS .52 4 cycles which would cost about $340. Now I know...

RE: Wing MFG b-25 vs. Royal b-25
