Default Todds Models Attitude motor setup?

I just got the Todds Models Attitude and wanted some input on some of the best power setups for this model. It should come in at 16-17oz. I'm also at 5000+ feet so I want to error on the high side. Thanks, Jim

Mine weighs 19.1 oz with Todd's recommended setup:

Mega 16/15/4
AstroFlight 709 GB
APC 12x6SF prop

I am using TP 3S 2100 mAh battery. I love this setup. It rockets out of a hover.

I have the Attitude and it's my favorite plane right now! I have the same power system:

Mega 16/15/4 with the Astro 709 gearbox 3:1 ratio
Slowfly prop 12X6 or 11X6 (the 12 is better IMO)
TP 3s 1900 pack

I have some of the 2100's as well, but the 1900 are a tad lighter and the new 10c 1900's are amazing....My AUW is a little over 20 oz with wheelpants:

The AUW of my Attitude is 19.5oz

Mega 16/15/8 DD
APC 12x3.8
3S TP 2100 / 3S Tanic 2200

She can hover at 50-60% throttle and flight time is about 20 minutes

What's the AMP draw on that setup? I have a Ragged Edge built and will weigh 24oz, want the best motor setup possible at under 25amps... the mega seems nice.

Your direct drive 16/15/8 runs how many amps, and how much thrust?

Thanks for the info in advance!
