I am trying to find a motor that will work with my T-28 Trojan that is cheaper than the stock one, I am trying to save as much money as I can.

Thanks, Chris

one thing in this hobby is you get what you pay for.nothing wrong in trying to save money but save it on other things.buying a cheap inexpensive motor may save you money now but if it fails is there a warranty for replacement.most of the brand names will stand behind their products,chinese imports you are on your own.I still remember about thirty years ago some guys in the club were buying cheaper kwik links than dubro ,I think there was a fifty cent difference.they lost a few planes because the links failed.you will save money in the long run by buying the best you can afford .

Those cheap HC motors are wonderful and stand up very well, as Clay suggested.

As long as you do not overpower them, the warrantee is just about useless, as there is nothing to go wrong that you will not know about right away.

I've had wonderful experience with the HC stuff, and as long as you are careful with your choices you do not have to purchase the overpriced items.
Those warantees however are great for things that can be more problematic, such as Gas and Glow engines.

So just shop judiciously and you can save a bundle.

BTW: Check out their prices on servos too, I've had much LOWER failure rates on the Hextronics than I've had on Hitec's, go figure.

You will want to double check that this is a good match, but something like this looks equivalent to the Eflite motor that they sell as a replacement for the Trojan:

It is about 1/4 the cost of the Eflite motor, and I think these Turnigy motors are fantastic.

Good luck

I put this Turnigy motor in my Parkzone Corsair so I know it will work in the T-28 too: http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=3886&Product_Name=TR_35-36C_1100kv_Brushless_Outrunner_(Eq:_AXi_2814

It was almost a direct fit and I used the stock parkzone prop adapter. All I had to do is enlarge a couple of the motor mount holes slightly. I recall it being slightly shorter too but I was able to make up for it by putting a couple washers between the mount and the motor and the prop adapter a milimeter or two further out on the shaft.

I'm very happy with the performance of the motor on the airplane.

+1 thats the motor I run in mine before it went glow. more power then the stock, I went with the plush 40 amp esc also but it will work with the OEM esc. you can still use the stock motor mount with a little mod. if you use the mount that comes with the turnagy as a template two holes line up with the PZ mount you'll have to drill the other two.
