I think the issue is that there's a massive thread of nothing but skywalker setups.. check that and I guarantee you'll find what you're looking for.

4s is the way to go with 980kv motor with 9x6 prop. if sticking with 3s i would go with 1250kv motor with 9x6 prop.

I have read that post but there is only like 4 motors talked about and im kinda sure that what they post is what they started with insted of what they have found to work best.
I have a 1020 kv now that was on my old plane. I may try it out untill the 1400 kv gets shiped to me. |

The Skywalker 1680 and 1900 should use the same motor selection. I have both and power required is the same.
This Skywalker 1680 thread produced over 600 responses with "motor" as a search criteria. Plenty of info on motors and props. |

The SW electronics thread was started more than a year after the SW was released. . It's full of well proven setups and plenty of proof for why they work. I count 7 motors on the first page, and 17 overall in flying planes. Moxie 980 Turnigy 3536 1400 Scorpion SII-3008-1220 BEVRC 980 Scorpion SII-3014-890 HK SK 3480 1100 Scorpion SII 3014-1220 Tunigy 3636b 1400 Turnigy L3015A-1000 Turnigy 3636 1450 Turnigy 3542 1000 G Force 36-36 1250 NTM 36-36A 1400 BPHobbies 2815-6 1410 KEDA 3636 1450 Scorpion SII-3020-780 PowerUp 15 Sport 1000 Any of those would work in the 1900. I just wouldn't plan on the 1900 being a speed demon and choose a motor accordingly. Generally speaking <1000kv is used with 4S setup, and >1000kv is used with 3S setups. There are exceptions both ways. ian |
