Default Rimfire 35-30-950

I have got a great planes rimfire 35-30-950 brushless motor looking for a home. I am new to electrics and i was just wondering what size aircraft am i limited to, I had it in the great planes reactor 3d ep and it would pull the 27oz plane out of a hover, so for example if i was going to a scale flying type airplane and not 3d how big of a plane can i put this motor in? Say for example would it fly a 64 oz tiger month?

Default RE: Rimfire 35-30-950

The 35-30-950 has a max. watt output rated just under 300watts. A scale plane would be requiring 90 +/- watts per pound of aircraft.

So in your example - 64oz. = 4lbs. x 90watts per pound = 360 total watts required - you would be a bit under mathematically.

I would recommend being somewhere closer to 40oz. with 48oz. as an absolute max. on a scale aircraft with that motor.
