Bobcat 46 - recommended setup

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

Hi All,

I have a Bobcat 46 pusher jet that currently has a .46 glow motor and I would like to convert to EDF. All up weight will likely be 3 - 3.5kg. Any recommendations on the right EDF, motor, ESC and battery? I am completely new to EDF's.

cheers,

Dave

	I suggest you teach yourself a bit and try to find your stuff needed and than we can still give you the suggestions wether you found the good stuff or not.
	A minimal technical knowledge is required for this hobby; please ensure you know the differences between up and down.

	I think a pulsejet would be a far more exciting option for powering that Bobcat ;-)
