Got a Big Motor

From what I can tell it looks like it looks like it would fly any of the standard sized ft planes when scaled up to 150% or so. I didn’t see a thrust chart, but from the pics it looks like a 630kv that runs 4s. A 150% Corsair would be pretty cool.

Out of Foam Board!
It'll likely fly scaled up FT planes like @The Hangar said, along with some of the balsa .40 sized planes. Do you have a link to the motor since I've been looking for low price motor options for the IL-2 i'm making.
The emax GT series seem to be pretty good and cheap: I’m using the 4020 on the 82” ultra stick I’m building.

Looks like a perfect size for the FT3D or Edge.

It came out of a Hitec Weekender 300S.

I've built both the FT3D and Edge. The 3D flew ok but it seems too small for this motor. The Edge never flew well for me. I built at least 3 of each plane. Still have a carcus of the FT Edge.
I may try a large stick. I seem to have more success with this simple design.

You can’t go wrong with a stick!
