Mega 16/25/3 on combat wing
Has anyone tried the mega 16/25/3 motor on a zagi or combat wing? Pushes up to 28oz of thrust and should be out of this world?

The Zagi is ballistic with the 16/15/3 and 8 cells. The 16/25/3 is a much "cooler" motor meant to spin a much larger prop at a much lower RPM. More thrust, less speed.

I have a mega 16/15/3 on a reinforced Slinger (I know,..not the best choice), with an APC 6x4. It really hauls the mail!!! Big difference from a brushed motor. I'm building a Combat Wing XE now for the Mega. Can't wait to try that out. You won't be disappointed with a 16/15/3 and a good 8-10 cell.

save your money, when lithium polymers become a little more affordable buy a thunder power 3s3p pack and run this with your 16/15/3. this is the definition of ballistic. the battery tray needs modified to fit the larger pack but were talking higher speeds then I've been able to achieve with nicds. the pack weights 15oz, but the zagi likes the added weight at the nose and helps slice through high winds, also soar at heights that will make you uneasy. flight time 20-30min. battery price $175.00
