Hi

I'm about to start with the Flair Tiger Moth.
What I'm considering really to use brushless motor and maybe as well some sound module.
Asked AXI what motor they would recommend for such weight (box claims 7.3~9Kg).
Axi recommendation was AXI5345/14 with 10s and 99A regulator.

I have 2 maybe issues with this:
- it seems to me overkill
- the weight of this combo with some 4000mAh 10s pack is 2412g but large 4 stroke (Laser/OS) is around 1000 for about the same price God Give me Strength

What C discharge the batteries shall have?

Is there any other setup you would recommend for the Tiggie?
Any input welcomed

I have been flying a 1/4 scale Tiger Moth for the past 5 years on electric power. It's not the Flair one, but an ARTF from a German shop. Mine weighs around 9kg and flies very realistically on a power system that develops 1500 Watts. Most flying is done on 1/2 throttle and I normally only use around 2/3 power for realistic-looking takeoffs. There's little point describing my power system, as it's now very old and out of date, but it's a Plettenberg motor, with a Modelair-Tech beltdrive. Prop is 20 x 10 and battery pack is 28 x Sanyo CP3600CR cells. Pack weight is around 2.5kg and you WILL need just about this much weight up front in order to achieve correct CG. Any more questions, just ask or PM me.
