Solar plane
Hi guyss
we are making a solar panel plane and i need you guys help. i have few questions to ask.
1- since energy is our biggest concern , does it make any difference to use 2 pieces 200w or 1 piece 400w brushless motor by consuming energy. because i have heard that using 1 400w brushless motor is more efficent.
2- should we use brushless motor or sensored brushless motor to gain more work. actually what is the biggest different between there motors.
3-and most important questions is , after calculating weight of the this plane , we need to chose motor. For example , plane is 2,3 kg and we need to choose motor. Should we choose lowest powerfull motor which can fly this plane or should we choose more powerfull motors which can easly fly this plane. of course our problem is still which is more efficent by energy.
our goal is making flying time longest
sorry for language i am still learning english i hope i expressed myself thankssss......

Hi Chess,
You probably need to ask this in an electric specialist group. Try one of the groups at http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/elec...-universe-227/
The contributors here mostly use gas turbine for engines, (energy efficiency does really factor for us.
)
Sounds like a cool project.
