<div>See, that's what I'm saying. Your 110 size plane is 8 pounds. Other 110 sized arfs are 10pounds, lol.. Most 110 sized arfs won't run off such a small Axi.. Nice work.

[NSRCA-discussion] Electric Pattern<BR><BR><BR>>I must disagree with Mike here. The "rules of thumb" on the required<BR>> electric motor power versus weight are: Sport models with virtually<BR>> no aerobatic capability = 50 to 75 watts per pound. For models with<BR>> some aerobatic capability = 100 to 125 watts per pound.

There is a scaling factor which most be applied for<BR>> heavier models.
