A cheap setup for 90mph
TL-50 Slice:
Been getting complaints every time i fly my wings so i started looking for a quieter setup the was still efficient. I realized i had a striker motor laying around and wondered what i could do to increase power handling.
I used this stryker 1880 motor and achieved 90 mph flat and level in the 50.
I am tempted to fly it again using a 6 x 4.5 gas prop to see if i can get 100 even.
