upgrade to Brushless
I have a Cessna 747 plane.
I m planning to upgrade it to brushless motor. Do you know which motor, esc, prop, batteries should I get. please advice. thank you
Here are the spec. of my plane:
Flying Weight 440g
Original Motor: 370A with gear box
What does 370A means? Size?
There are different 910KV...2800KV motors. Power?

RE: upgrade to Brushless
A small foam Cessna model just under 1lb. in weight would fly well with any number of different brushless outrunner motors.
Look for something in a 28mm diameter, 30mm length size rated between 950kva and 1400kva. Match it with a 12 amp to 18 amp ESC and a 2S or 3S LiPo battery in the 500mAh to 800mAh size range. Try a few electric slow flyer props in the 8" to 10" diameter range to find the size you like best.
Good luck and good shopping!
