Hi everyone! I and some friends of mine are currently thinking about building an electric RC airplane. It will weigh around 2 kg, be about 1 meter long and run on 2 electric motors. We don't want it to fly very fast, but not 5 km/h either. Maybe a little bit slower than the Cessna 182 in this video:
. The plane will have a WCL of about 7, a high wing, conventional tail and non-moveable tricycle landing gear. Though we have decided a lot, we need help with a few things: What kv should the motors have? Are flaps and spoilers necessary, or would it just be way too much work for it to be worth adding? Is a BEC necessary so we're sure we don't overheat the receiver (especially if we have 6 or 7 servos).
Thank you so much for your time.
