Is it a good combo?
I purchased an Omega electric 2-meter glider with a Promax 14 cobalt motor, Planetary gearbox of 3.7 or 4.3 using an 11/8 folder. Plane crashed due to another tx being on at the same time. Finally found another ARF that did'nt cost quite as much. Trendy 480 (480 sq."). Poly wind instead of straight. This unit wieghs 2# complete. Had to add an ounce of wieght to the tail. Am using 8 cell 600mah nicads. Is this motor combo too heavy for this bird? The Omega was not able to go out at a 45 degree angle with this set up. Hitec 555 rec. and 81 servos. 45 years of flying with gas. This method requires a lot more knowledge and there are so many combinations to choose from.. Thanks for the help.[8D]
