Default RE: e-flite Apprentice 15e motor swap


ORIGINAL: SkyPilot101

You want to swap out your motor & esc because you heard of failures in the stock equipment??? WHY not just fly the crap out of it & not worry about things that might happen! If you must through money at it, the 60 size outrunner is Tooo big for your airframe, the battries you will need won't fit. Step up one size higher in motor Kv for better performance. eg, 800 to 1050 as an example.
Perhaps there was some confusion........... Iwas considering a 25 outrunner motor and a 60AESC.

And to answer another question about just keeping the stock motor -> Idon't want a failure mid-flight, as some have reported.
