VPP Upgrading
 
Hey, I was thinking of getting a VPP set from Hobby-lobby and get the axi motor with it, then get a Pheonix 10 brushless esc and have a 2 cell 1320maH li po along with a jr XF631 (6 channel) an Jr R610M reciever all in a reach Whirlwind ( http://www.reach-model.com/products_0.htm ) do you think this would work ok (i would also use jr micro servos)

Thoughts???

You will need a 3 cell battery for out VPP system. If the plane weighs 10 ounces or less you'll have a blast.

I'm using a reach Whirlwind picture below it can be found at http://www.reach-model.com/products_0.htm.

Also how much performance could you get from a 2 cell 1350mah lipo??

u will need a Phoenix 25 ESC...a 10 is not enough for that motor...i have the same set up on a Lee Ulinger Foamtana with a 3 cell 1050 duralite pack...insane power for indore and inverted hovers r very stable

A 10 Amp controller will be fine for the 2208/34 motor. We run the Jeti 8 Amp controllers with them. You really will need the 3 cell battery though.

an axi would work just fine (a 2208/34 its built for that, kinda)
