Hi,

In order to eventually replace glow engines I need to spin a APC 12x8 (mandatory) at 11.000-12.000 rpm and a 14x7 at 9.500 rpm. Minimum autonomy 15 minutes full power.
What do you suggest as motor/reg/batt?

Thks,

Daniel

Not knowing the exact requirements and what you're going to use this power setup in is a little limiting. But how about an AXI 4130-16 with a 8s4p 12800 (made out of four Kokam 3200 packs)

The two prop setups you mention had different amount of thrust and pitch speeds. Are you talking about two different planes?

Thanks thunder1 for this good info.
This gived me approx costs for the conversion. Project was to electrify a 100" 26lb A10 and a 80" 12lb CAP10.
Just waiting some time more until prices get down :( .
