RE: Flat Spinnnnnnnnnnnnnn
 
Thanks. I was mostly concerned with my power setup. It was my first time ordering from H.C. and I think I ended up adding the wrong motor to the basket. This is the first electric setup I have tried to setup on my own so I really don't know what to expect. My guess is that the plane will probably fly - not well - and will need a bigger motor. Should be enough to get some practice taking readings and charging before I try powering up my electric pattern plane.

I ended up with his motor:

this battery:

Then I went with this mount to help with the CG:

That should work. I like that motor mount. It's less money than I spent on stainless bolts and spacers. Plus, you should be able to mount your esc to it so it stays cool.

Good luck

Awesome, thanks. Great idea with the ESC on the mount - not sure I would have thought of that one! Things are cramped in the fuse as it is. Can't wait for it to warm up to try this thing out
