90 gm thrust for 240 gm AUW sufficent?
Iv just completed seting up my wingbat (26"flying wing) www.wingbat.co.uk the AUW is 240 gm ,i put a blue arrow inrunner 3000 kv brushless motor on it .the prop is a tiny 3" the thrust prduced by ths setup is approx 90gm ,far too less then what i had anticipated . Itested the motor prop combo in my backyard although it was a small hop but the motor seemed to push the wing ok .I do understand that flyingwing sort of designs donot require much static thrust because of their efficent lift producing capability .I would appreciate some sugestions for the power setup .
Thanks
John
