Motor for Kyosho DF unit
I've got a Kyosho DF unit laying around, waiting for me to build something for it. Before I do that, what brushless motor would be a good fit for this unit.
Thanks,

RE: Motor for Kyosho DF unit
I am using a HET Typhoon 2W from Warbirds-RC.com ($50 delivered), powering it with a 2S2Px2600, CC PHX 45 ESC. This combo draws 42 amps at full throttle, flies my 48" WS F9F for 10 minutes (at cruise power). If you're still using NimH, stay with 6 cells
A MEGA 16/15/2 works equally well, same current draw, more $.
3S is too much for the above, it'll smoke the motor.
