Default RE: Jetmax SR-71 Brushless setup?

I have the Panther F9F 2, Great planes L39, and Exceed F-18 and have sucessfully flown them all..... with out failure. I have been in the hobby since my father put me on the sticks some 28 yrs ago so Im not completly illiterate I just dont have much to go from other than saying that it requires 2-40 amp esc's and 65mm brushless motors?? I need something a little better to go off of than that. Now if it was nitro.... I wouldnt be here asking. lol Thats all Im saying. just asking for a little help, hence the new to edf-electric thing, but not totaly new to the hobby....

I have read a few articles as well as a few forums that some guys are dumping quit a bit of money into these just to get them moving faster than the stock 40 mph that they came out with and from what they are saying, 500.00 bucks is how much they had to put into them to perform to there standards or to just to get it to fly and not stall out. Most of them were complaining that was way to much to be put into a foamy....well I still think it can be done for way less my self and want to try. I already have 85.00 in the plane + 80.00 in both esc's and 40.00 on a battery. So if I can do it for 300-350.00 then its a win for me.
