How do you figure out what motor to use in a plane? I have bought a few electric motors for profile jets and the motors were called out. I am building the swappables and would like to know what and how to figure out what motors to buy. The plans mention some motors but the number call outs do not match the motors that HK or RCtimer sell. Also, they build up the planes and show them to us flying but not necessarily with the suggested motors and they do not tell us the ones they are using. The numbers are different and I have asked several times about them without a complete answer. The 2628 in most cases it the measurement of the motor size. What does the number after that mean? 2628-10 I have seen the suggested watts per pounds mentioned before. What is the difference in the bell type verses the other out-runners type? How do you figure out the battery run time per pack? Some people say not to run the batteries below the storage voltage? How do you figure this out? I use the 2200 3s packs.
I need to buy motors for the slinger and the dusty and need suggestions for motors. What run time should I get with the 2200 packs and the suggested motors you come up with. I need to buy these motors soon and the planes are building up in the house and the wife wants them completed and in the garage!!!!!!!! Please help.
Thanks in advance for suggestions and any information supplied.
