Default Noob needs help trimming plane Please.

New,
I'm not aware of different windings, and timings on plane motors, other than the fact that some are made for pushe, or geabox, usually with an R in the designation.
Heat sink is a good idea for any of them, and as far as I know the graupner motors are typically 380 Mabuchi motors with a metal endbell, bearing (plain and ball) they change the name to speed 400. I'm not an expert on electric motors, but if you get a graupner, speed 400, you will see a little improvement over what you have now. They also have the same screw pattern for mounting in a gearbox.
Tower or whoever you order from should give you a little more tech advice as far as that goes.
