Default RE: Kaos E-Konversion

In the interest of helping you with your conversion here are the specs on my Conquest IVe.

My plane is considerably larger than yours with a 65" wingspan (790 sq. inch) and an 65" length. However, comparisons can be made that might help you. My gut feeling is that you need a 5s setup at maybe +/-3500 mAh. A 6s pack would seem too big and heavy in my mind. Anyways, here is my set-up:


* Scorpion 4025-10 - What is critical here is the high KV of 515,the largest prop I canfit is 13"on the Conquest IV

* APC 13x10e prop - This prop provides the best power for this plane so far, I tried 12x10's and 12x12's but 13x10 is best (I only have about a 1/2" of prop clearance!)

* E-Flight 80 ESC - I am pulling about 68 amps max so this works fine, I am not using the BEC - Separate flight pack for safety

* Sky-Lipo 6s 5000 mAh 30c cont. motor battery - gives me 7.5 mins of flight time using +/- 80% of capacity

* Set up generates about 1600 watts which works well at 9 lbs - 10 oz rtf - I would be a little happier if I could be under 9 lbs.

* Everything comes down just lightly warm to the touch

I hope this helps you in some manner.
