Here is another question for you all. I have a few spare parts left over from my sky hunter. Like the motors. The thing with this plane is this, it could be flown by using an edf or pusher prop set up. Here is the plane,
The plane weighs 915 grams and has a wingspan of 1400mm. Now here is the question...... Would I be able to take that motor (1400kv running a 7x6 prop) off the mount in the sky hunter and use it in this plane? It comes with a 30amp esc (went poof after last crash) but i think thats mainly for the edf motor. I have found online that most motors that are around 1400kv run on a 20amp or less ESC. I have a few 18amp ESCs at the house. Grayson Hobby sells kits with 1100kv motors running the 18amp ESC. So I'm thinking that if that motor can push that big plane around why can't it push this smaller and way lighter F/A 18? Can I do it, It will save me about 80 bucks in electronics if it will.
