| toy, would that be enough? (my model will run with arduino) | | | | )to handle the higher current from the same control. Thats if you can find the Graupner unit. There have been problems this last couple of years while they "restructured" themselves. | | | | and I found (unfortunately I don't speak Deutch) I also took the measurements, in facts it is a 70cm sailer. I'm not that worried by the weight, since it wide. I think I should just keep the gravity center as low as possible. I don't know what you call the rx pack. My idea is to remote everything with an arduino linked to a phone onboard. This way I will be able to use all the phone captors and several kilometers range for the remote. | | | | | | | I don't know what you call the rx pack.

A small propeller will give less drag when not being used, and will allow the motor to spin freely keeping its current demand, and its tendency to heat up, low. The 400 with the folding propeller that Gregg28 mentioned will need a heavier transistor because it will need more current. It would probably need a bigger battery as well. | RX pack is the battery to work the radio. With a boat that size, I am unsure of the benefit of long range. Long before you get it just one kilometer away you will have trouble seeing which way it is pointing, if you can see it at all. | | | | You all are probably right, I think I will try to use RC brushless motor, I wouldn't like to be upset later if it not good enough. What would you think of that one? It seems to be powerfull and cheap, and the speed controler is included | Quick Reply | The following errors occurred with your submission | | | | Similar Threads | Category | Thread | Thread Starter | Forum | Replies | Last Post | Discussion | | darticus | Sailboats | 14 | Apr 30, 2014 01:45 PM | Discussion | | spacephrawg | Sailboats | 34 | Jan 29, 2009 11:22 PM | Question | | Squab | Sailboats | 13 | Mar 02, 2006 01:58 AM | - Electric Flight
