fly boy3 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Hi all, just obtained a fully built electric glider called" Easter Eagle". Seems it was built from a 2002 free plan. Found some info on the forum regarding this model, but using brushed gear. Could any one please suggest a budget brushless power train for it. AUW is around 45ozs. Apparently it is a sedate low aspect ratio model. A 200 watt motor has been mentioned somwhere. Also any info on CoG position would be welcomed. Thanks FB3 Edited By fly boy3 on 06/12/2012 22:01:46 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly boy3 Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 Ok ,a good few looks, but no answers, my fault not enough info. Here some I have managed to locate. Wing/loading 10.8oz/square ft. Wing area 620 square inches. Chord 12.5 inches. Wingspan 53 inches. I only require a power assist type train. Thanks Edited By fly boy3 on 07/12/2012 16:42:00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly boy3 Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 Trying to answer my own question as far as the motor goes. Wonder if this is suitable for the above set up.
