WHICH MOTOR 68' DHC 2 BEAVER

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

I disagree, the 68" Beaver has a flying Weight of :4.9 - 6.2 lbs (2.2 - 2.8 kg).
It could fly on a lighter setup but there's alway nice with some headroom and the SK42-50 runs nice on 4S.
A friend (Chris F) has one with a SK42-50 (post #4), check out the video.

	The SK motor is too big for your plane and it needs a 5S or 6S setup, which increases battery weight. Two other posibilities: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=4909 http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=14400 but unfortunately the last is out of stock for some time now...
	A minimal technical knowledge is required for this hobby; please ensure you know the differences between up and down.

	The SK series has better magnets and bearings. The SK 42-50 is a great motor! The other is probably very good too, but I have no personal experience with it. Peter
