Default RE: What motor system should I choose

Fritz:

Thank you for those numbers.
My plane is not a scale warbird. I might call they scout, which disigned by myself. I had four prototype planes. Two was crushed. Basically, they are two types. One take off weight is 14 - 16 lb and powered by ST G75. Another take off weight is 23 - 25 lb and powered by MVVS 1.6. No any aeraobatics is needed. I just want them to take off, climb, stable flying, turn and landing even both types are able to do loop and roll.
The new one is still in building. the 15 - 16 lb is the designing take off weight. The plane actually weight wo/power system should be around 8 lb. I was thinking AXI 41 series or Hacker B or C50. Or MVVS 1.6 (over powered and viberation problem).

Could you please tell me why do you recommended AXI?
What is the LiPoly bettery life time (how many times can be recharged)? Do they have longer life time than NiMH?

Best Regards,

CJ
