Default RE: Purple Brushless Electric Ultimate BiPe

ORIGINAL: KWJ48

Here's some pics of my build. I haven't flown it yet , but I used hs 55 servos, this [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/WTI0001P?&I=LXKSY5]ESC[/link], and this [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/WTI0001P?&I=LXLWU1]motor[/link]. The motor is just a bit more kv than the park 480 so it should do well.

Hah I just put in a motor with similiar specs.

Now the BiPe flies with about 40% throttle and does go straight up almost unlimited.

My flight times with my 2200mAh batteries have been cut to about 14 minutes though, whereas the other motor was giving me about 30 minutes... but it was far more anemic.

Make sure your ESC will handle 20amps+.

My 15/25 amp ESC is really borderline with that motor.... I'm going to change it out too.
