    thank you Tim & Steve Steve i agree there i think that i will be getting one on my next order thats for sure need it for building next model may go with another one of Tim's builds... maybe even a old school bi plane .. if i fancy a challenge .... will keep in mind the prop idea not putting one on less its ready to go thank you for that heads up Tim .. thank you didnt know if to go a little more involved with this on being little heavier and having the ailerons on it... I know that is a little off the Pix-e but anyone ever heard of a precedent HiBoy training plane???? rgds Adrian

    my teacher should be happy lol(mr Hargreaves) I'm learning thank you thats how i did it working off the watts and working back to get the right safe Amps .. so V x A= W Simple when you remember these things not got a meter yet but going to invest as starting to get back into things more now.. so going to need one.. they dont cost much when you think about the price you could lose out when you mess up on the motor / esc / battery front and could end up in loss of everything model included .. on the prop front was going to get a 7 x4 8 x3.8 and a 9 x4.7 all SF 2 motors 2 esc and 2 batteries order all in one go save some on p&p Adrian

    Hi Steve The watts i was looking for would be about 75w-90w so if my math's works right it would be around 10.7a - 12.9a max on a 2s does this sound right Steve??? that's why i went with the 18a ESC so if needed the burst rate would be around 15a..... not sure what size prop i would need to accomplish it though as from previous workings we found the 8x4 to be best suited??? (maths of w / v= A) Regards Adrian

    thank you for your hard work there Ruprect thanks also for all the info on the power set and the watts / Amps out.. looking to go with one of 2 a 7 x 5 and a 8 x 4 .. i think they seem to be giving watts needed also the amps are pretty good when it comes to the 15amp motor rating, as i thinks 15 is only a burst rate. with the selected props all being under @ around 11a and 9a i like the last part of your post was / are you a solicitor .. I would think that all posts are just a guide not a perfect outline, due to the changes in manufacturing and conditions that the experiments or flying was undertaken, as theses change by the second so the only person who would be at fault would be the person undertaking the controls at said moment.. Regard Adrian

    good morning Steve welcome to the party thank you for your input its always welcomed, with open mind. and a grin good to hear that you think i have chosen right on the prop size i wasn't sure like the idea of about 80W that would fly characteristically , not wanting the model to fly like a sports plane but i may order 9x4 to go on the new model just for the extra push.. if i order all 3 then test all see how it all goes from there, .. dont want to over load anything had a laugh as i was putting together my setup i remembered you saying about the prop adaptor earlier in the posts .so last night i was talking about it to may partner .. then when reading this, this morning, made me smile lol this is the prop adaptor i was thinking about getting PROP ADAPTOR think its right for the job 3mm shaft.?? thank you again for the last part in your post too, good to know that details and that the setup its pretty good to go.. will keep this in mind for future use... looks like what you had put before in your previous lessons may have gone in a little lol thanks again and regard Adrian

    thank you Pete i have tried to keep to their advice the best that i can .. not sure if i had or not .. wasn't sure if the 20c 1300 battery was ok or the esc with said battery regards Adrian

    thank you tim and ruprect .... the prop i was going for before Tim commented was going to be 8x4 slowfly prop and a model thats under 1.5lb that the motor says its able to pull, upto 800g think that about 1.7lb thank you tim will go with what you said will order the 7 x 5 do they do a slow fly in that size or just go with a standard??? as now got ailerons fitted, if that makes any difference to the equation ??? regard Adrian

    thanks you Tim , I have both wings for this model so will fly it with both and see if its any better I think it could be a different small model .thats designed not having ailerons . not sure if its going to change the CG much. but soon as i get it powered will work that out do you think it will fly ok with the this style of wing or can you see future issues Regards Adrian
