I got in the habit of going out early around 6-30 am, spoils you, calm , no wind

rotccapt - Since my reply is all about your motor, I posted it in your 'axi 2208 rewind' thread in the 'Brushless Motor Construction' forum. I just dont want to double post, plus I want to keep your AXI thread as informative as possible as not many AXI rewind threads are out there. link to your thread below. http://www.wattflyer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=51932 wingnutt.

np i understan it does make sense lets get this one back on track. i got the plane cut out the otherday and now i just need to attache the innards and fold it over and then start taping

Thanks Chellie, I'll most likely have to use a 1.75" to 2" aluminum spinner being that the rpm will be in the 24,000 range. Steve, I'm looking for 150+. Calcs show with a 7X7 or 7X8 should have pitch speeds around 160 with 2+ to 1 thrust to weight and around 500 watts per pound. FUN! Scott

Wow!, &Fun! bubsteve

Hi , the cnc airfoils to get me started are the sipskill and the and the mh60, as far as i can tell they should be basically easy( ish) to have a try at hotwiring , ive also asked him to try and cut out a mjz1211 inner profile with a blend in the middle and an mh45 tip , itll probably crash and burn lol . I bought some cheap polyfoam from b&q to test on and if they turn out ok ill try them in epp. Fingers crossed i dont burn the house...

Excuse my ignorance but how do you adapt a prop to this motor's shaft? Oops! I see the answer above...

I have a 40amp ESC and tons of 1500-1800mah Lipos. Was wandering how to determine what engine to use if you know the weight of the aircraft? I was looking at the Synapse by GP but was concerned about the weight with the battery motor combo. Thanks.

thanks chillie I hope for 200 I am at 5000 feet so i may get close and my wing is just a little thiner than a stock fun jet but not much. It going to be a few months before I can get the motor but I do have every thing else
