So, I'm planning on building a FT Slinger soon. I chose this one because I want to go fast . When I say I want to go fast I want to be able to really scream across the sky. So I was looking into what prop-motor-esc-battery to use in it. I'm thinking around a 9inch with a high pitch for speed. I was also hoping to put up a 2200 3 cell for the battery. Also I have a few 30A ESCs handy so I would like to use them. All this being said, what's the best motor for the money that will work for this plane? I was hoping to not spend more than 20$ for a motor too. I looked at the GT2215/09 or "The Beef" from lazertoys and saw that they bundled that with a 9x6 prop for the swappable. But it looks like the next step up is the GT2218/09. If I got this motor, what prop should I use for the best speed? They used an 11x3.8 in their tests but I don't think that a slow fly prop would give me what I'm looking for.
