Hi,

I am looking at converting a 40-46 size scale aircraft to electric. One of the biggest issues I see is the prop size. THe electric motors are recommending a prop that is too big for what I need. I do not have very much ground clearance. I need a prop and motor combo that can pull an airplane that is about 6 lbs and keep the prop at 10-11 inches. Like a 40 nitro would swing.

I do not know what the weight difference would be between a 40 nitro and a 32 to 46 electric setup. Any info on this would be good. I like the motor listings that are similar to the nitros. This makes it easier to determine the motor size. In my case the infor is not enough.

Can I reduce the prop size and what will this effect? Or should I stay nitro?


Oh, By the way this is not a 3D aircraft. I do not want it to fly like one either.

Thanks
