RE: GWS E-Starter... motor/esc/rcvr Questions

If you are going to use those, you may need to change the gearbox & prop. If memory serves me correctly, 3S lipos are recommended with the 400 with D gearing and a 9x5 prop.

Someone correct me...

RE: GWS E-Starter... motor/esc/rcvr Questions

One problem you have is that battery is only good for 6.5 amps continous. With the stock setup, there is a chance you will overamp your battery and damage it.

For some headroom, you should...

RE: GWS E-Starter... motor/esc/rcvr Questions

I also adjusted the depth of my torque rods so they were centered.

I didn't use the pushrod material in the aileron, but I did use small diameter glow fuel tubing. I carefully drilled out the...

RE: GWS E-Starter... motor/esc/rcvr Questions

You can stall at any speed. There is such a thing as a high speed stall. Buy a Formosa, put elevator at high rates, get her going good at full throttle and give full up quickly. If you do this at...

RE: GWS E-Starter... motor/esc/rcvr Questions

I know Estarters fly without ailerons because my friction fit aileron servo came loose in flight. I didn't spend much time flying as I didn't know what the problem was in the air, but I managed to...

RE: GWS E-Starter... motor/esc/rcvr Questions

What kind of prop did you put up front with that?

And any idea how many amps you're pulling with it?

RE: GWS E-Starter... motor/esc/rcvr Questions

It's not that we want to add dihedral to Barwelle's Estarter, we want to establish that his wing isn't deformed. If the wing is v shaped with each half of the wing straight and not curved or...

RE: GWS E-Starter... motor/esc/rcvr Questions

I've not measured it, but the wing is definitely V shaped. There is no warp or curve in my wing.

I'm not sure if you actually need the HS65, a HS55 may do and save you $5 too, but I am...

RE: GWS E-Starter... motor/esc/rcvr Questions

I can't tell you what mine weighs. My Estarter might not fly as well if it knew. :)

The Estarter does fly rudder only. I know because I friction fit my aileron servo and it came loose...

RE: GWS E-Starter... motor/esc/rcvr Questions

The problem you describe could be caused by a number of things. Does the problem change with the distance you are from the plane or the direction the antenna is pointed in? I had some problems with...

RE: GWS E-Starter... motor/esc/rcvr Questions

The 300 ESC is rated at 8 Amps continuous and 15 Amps max. From what I've heard about the GWS batteries, you won't get much more than 8 amps out of them anyway, so you should be okay with the 300...
