78" span, 515 sq", kind of a 'sport' hotliner, maybe? :rolleyes:

I just picked one (http://www.newcreations-rc.com/planes/arcus.htm) up on Ebay, and am trying to decide what motor to put in it.

Would it fly better on geared or direct?

Some choices I have at the moment:

Aveox 1010/2Y w/3.7:1 planetary
Aveox 1010/4Y w/3.7:1 planetary
Aveox 1406/4Y - direct ( would need to get a gearbox )
AFI FAI-05 cobalt 6T#19 ( but needs a gearbox )

What would be your order of choices from best to worst?

Thx for any help.
