Motor/prop/battery selection - Pattern Glider!
Hey guys! So, this is for a 'glider' but this is the community I wanted to ask, so I'm posting here. I hope you don't mind!
I'm assembling a composite aerobatic glider (Fox): 3M span, 1.5M length, 3.5kg max weight (all-up.) I'd say 15" prop looks right, 14-16" range. I'll be flying sequences with it, and if I'm going to power it I might as well put something that can pull it like a pattern plane.
Any suggestions for motor and voltage? Or maybe just power rating, and/or prop diameter and rpm?
I'm in Hawaii and there isn't much room to fly 2M pattern here, but I miss sequences so I figured I'd try this!
Thanks!
