RE: I need help with the right size motor for a scratch built foam plane.

Well if it is a sort of scratch built foam Eagle 2, YOu could use a MP 25 or 32 sized motor and a 3s battery.

For the 25 sized motor run an APC 13X8 prop and you should all of the power you need and then some.

For the 32 sized motor run a 14X8 and have a rocket ship.

Buzz.
