Default E Diamond dust!

If I'm going to Electricfy a Daimond dust, would a Speed 400 motor fly it?

nope, i would recomend trying to keep prop size in the same realm as the low end glow motors that will fly it. 8" and 9" , this will take a mighty brushless to get the rpms to give you the same performance. If you use Nicads will will probly be way heaver than the glo counterpart, Nimh and better yet Lipo will get you in the same AUW. Study up on hotliner power configurations and you will find all the info you need. motor , battery and prop configurations. hope ive helped,,,, it really all depends on how much of the speed envelope you want to use..

You might give a try in the electric forum for great powerplant combos...

It would be fun to see a Quiet DD- but more expensive I am sure- [X(]

Let us know if it happens!
