2620 replacement for Bixler

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

The Bixler plane is sold without motor in Europe, and I do not see the 2620 in the HK list of 1900 Kv motors. What is a suitable HK motor? I can see not the weight. Plus I would prefer someing that will fit in the hole.

	I read the reviews and this is what one guy said I just flew the plane yesterday. It flies like a dream. I flew about an hour with 2200mah 3s and only hat to charge 950mah. I flew at a slope, so its definitely great for slope flying. Remove the rings in front of the nose, then you can use 2200mah instead of 1300. My components are: Servos: 4xHXT900 ESC: Intel 20A brushless Motor: TR 28-26 16A 1900Kv Brushless Outrunner Prop: Graupner Slowfly 6,3x3 Perfect setup i guess. You have enough power to climb vertically, but save battery at the same time. Will test thermals and FPV next. Plane has lots of space to add lots of FPV stuff. My Flying weight is 675g, with FPV it will be ~850g, will review again if plane flies as well with ~850g.
	I'm as happy as a very happy sandboy.

	Did the TR28-26 fit in the hole left by a 2620? If it fits, does it have the airflow needed to keep the motor cool? I would prefer to buy the model with the motor fitted direct from China, but it is just too heavy to post to Europe.
