RE: 23 pound twin
Been doing some research. Leads me to more questions.
AXI has the 5330 XX and calculations from various web stores show that one motor will operate a model that weighs 18-22 pounds depending on flight style. But, since I will have to use 3 bladed props partly because of clearance, it looks like the best I can get is a 10/7 and maybe a 10/8.5. I cannot find any information on that motor with a 3 blade prop.
Additionally the 5320 XX should handle up to 15 pounds. Again no information on 3 blade props.
This is a big model 104" wingspan. Do I approach this from the perspective of what one motor will fly?
Anyone got good sources for 3 blade electric props?
Anyone got data on 3 blade on the above motors?
Which would you use? All will fit with room to spare in the cowls.
Regardless I will probably go with a Castle HV speed controller.
thanks
