The sky is the limit really, it all depends on what you are wanting to do with the plane...
I have not built a delta yet, but i am experimenting with Trainers... anything dihedral, with self righting properties, as i am also new to the flying hobby.
Now with the motor specs , keep your weight down to fit the motor thrust power and built whatever you feel like.
Try a scratch built as well, it's just foam right...
If u stick to what your motor can do, its all down to your personal choice and check out the flite test recommendations.
Lets me know on what you decided, i ordered 1 motor and 40 amp esc ..
cheers

I have that motor on my Spitfire, Mustang and Duster. It's an excellent choice. I plan to use it on my FT 22, FT Racer, Bloody Wonder and Bloody Wonder MkIII. I will also be trying it on a Versa Wing. Currently I'm using the 2200Kv version of that motor for the Versa.
