Electric for Astral XX 120
 

I'm waiting for my first pattern, Astral XX 120 from Waigo Hobby/Hongkong
http://www.waigohobby.com/products/p...e=Astral-XX120
* Length : 1,790mm (with spinner)
* Width : 1,710mm
* Wing area : 54.4dm2
4C 91 engine, over 140class engines cannot be used.
* Weight: 3.8kg-4.2kg
* Radio : 4ch5S-6ch6S
I don't know is the canopy movable, but I want convert that plane to electric. What are motor size, ESP and battery I need to get good performance for F3A maneuvers ?

Try this ...

Motor: AXI 5330 F3A or if you wanna save but get a decent motor try the DualSky 6360-12 on 10S or 6350 series on 8S.
ESC: any 90A ESC that is high volt, up to 12S, try to get a branded one if you can if not get something from United Hobbies.
Battery: branded is best, they last ... 25C of about 4,500-5,000 mAh. Get 4S or 5S packs to run in series.

Go to the electric forum and check on pattern planes ... there are people using the DualSky 6360-12:

I would go hacker A60 series not axi. I own Axi from 43 series to 5345/14 and have had timing issues and thrown magnets on several. i have flown Hacker in my 90-120 Yak 50CC extra and now 75CC extra with out a flaw.

Thanks for all reply.
I'm really new in electric. I just know that for the electric, max weight is very important. ou7475, is A60 not to big for that plane ? Can you give me complete electric set up (motor-ESC-batt) your Yak ?
