looking forward to seeing if fly Phil, you really seem to be taken with pattern planes at the moment, but classic and modern.

Looks like you'll be running a motor with slightly higher KV than the recommended Hacker, but it looks like you had to go either higher or lower as there's not a straight equivalent.

I'm assuming you'll be using Hitec servos ;)

The Hacker supposedly can swing 16 - 17 inchers so with my higher Kv of +70, I had to take a guess on prop sizes in the 15 to 16 range.

Hitec digitals metal gear high voltage HS5496MH for elevator/rudder. HS5685MH for ailerons. The latter, over the top power, will be replaced with 5496MH now they back in stock. No regulator in 'ere. Can run it on LiFe and LiPo for servos and receiver. Ready to go except finding a suitable position for the LIfe/Lipo pack ;)

Hobbywing Pro 100 amp ESC because thta is all I had to hand. Might use the spare juice form the BEC to play music or flashing lights. :silly:
