Default RE: 3D Foamy Mini Sukhoi Build thread!

Hey Tom,

Gene here from the C-12 shop at TPS, I am currently building the Mini Sukhoi and I am going to put E-flites Park 370 outrunner brushless motor and E-flites 20 amp speed control on mine. I talked to the Hacker people and they said the A20-34S would be marginal power and they recommended the A20-26M or 30M. Well the E-flite motor produces the same power and if you buy it from Doug's you end up saving $30.00 over the price of the Hacker. Don't get me wrong I love the Hacker motors and I have Three of the A20-20L's on other 3D Foamy aircraft (Extra, Cap 232, full size Sukhoi), I was just looking for the best bang for the buck. I was also able to get two 1000mah three cell li-poly batteries from maxamp.com for $60.00 and they seem to work fantastic with the e-flite motor. I am getting about 9 to 11 minutes of flight on my 3D Foamy Mini Tiburon Bipe with the same set up. Good luck, and I will see you at the school.
