RE: Electric Setup for Summit 60
Hi,
Thanks for the interest. He will be using bolly fixed gear, clearence is ok for a 14 inch prop. He plans to install AXI 4130/16 on 7s, motor is low kV we will see how it performs.
Summit is a very nice plane, I saw it from close, I think Ivan Kristensen's taste and design at that time was too progressive, it is a square plane (tail is not short), canopy is forwared stab is thick (both the aifoil anf the trailing edge). Wings aspect ratio is close to today's deisgns. it should snap very well.
We will be using a T canaliser to cancel the coupling effects of the fixed landing gear. Will make a scale down version based on CPLR's orignal design for the Oxalys.
I will post pictures when I find the chance, this is a very intersting project I am curious about the set up if is it ok I will be using it on my old Saphir II too.
Best regards,
Nikos
