Help! suggestions for trainer scratch build before i fly it

[Houndpup Rc]

well the esc I'm using is the same one used most $20 rc plane electronics kits so its likely it doesn't have a low power cut off.

My $15 one has one.

 

[Mr Man]

do you have any good links to find one?

Here’s a good one, not the exact one I was talking about, but I do have a 30a of this, and it works great!

I think it just has a bad BEC. do you have any recommendations for a 40a esc that has a good BEC

My brother found one for $12 on amazon that seems to work okay, but he hasn't been able to really try it out yet.

Yup! That's the one.

 

[Mr Man]

Yup! That's the one.

That’s what I ran on my storch, works pretty well!

Looks like it flew well! Crazy seeing a plane with that much dihedral flying.👍😃

10 degrees of dihedral is a bit much but it does make the plane very stable in roll. it almost acts like it has a gyro when ever I try to roll it. the more I try to roll one way, the plane yaws the other and the difference in aoa between the wings causes the plane to try rolling opposite to the direction of which I'm trying to roll it.

Yeah, flew good though!
