What size is the 2 blade prop on the new version?

Greetings Farmflyer,

I believe it's the same as the original PZ version, 9.5 X 7.5

I am just not comfortable with the 30 ESC in many planes.  I got the new version as a gift and replaced the 30 amp ESC with a 45 Gecko.  I can use a 4-cell now if I wish.  The 45 Gecko and 4- cell fit easily and turn the plane into a real flying machine.  Most planes today are grossly under-powered, I think.

I think I'll take your power up advice on my E-Flite P-51. It's really a slow flyer. Thanks, Doc

RE: New E-Flite P-47D Has Arrived!! PIX Added!

This is my next project. The e-Flight p51 is indeed very slow. I finally finished all my Dynam models and puled all motors and ESC and upgraded them all. I used a Neo .15 with a Gecko 65 in two and a .25 in my P47D with the same Gecko ESC. I added flaps to the T28, Hurricane, and T28. These are much better flyers now. Happy flying today!

Thanks I happen to have a few of those. The 4 blade looks good but I'm more about the performance to a point. I don't need 100mph rockets just enough to fly comfortably don't like planes to feel like they're trying to fall out of the sky all the time. As has been previously stated in other threads if they were truly scale we couldn't fly any models anyway. By the way Bill what part of Ok do you live in? I'm in southeast Texas panhandle.

I'm in the SWish corner of OK
I suppose the biggest town closest to me would be west about 30 miles and the would be Lawton, OK

Greetings,

Indeed! it's only about 150 miles - under 3 hours.

Duncan, where I am is a bit bigger at 20,000 ish.

Having grown up in Philadelphia, Duncan feels like 300!

Lol Bill 20,000 is a big city it's over 50 miles to anything that size which sometimes is a good thing. I wouldn't trade my life in a small town for anything I used to work in Dallas Fort Worth area and also drove a truck cross country coast to coast hitting all the major cities and never liked any of them don't miss em at all.

Greetings,

Indeed......

I balk and quickly search for an excuse if for some reason I need to go to a Big City now!!!

Those trips are business only... In and Out!!!

Someday we'll have to find a club somewhere in the middle and plan a Saturday fly as guests.

Sounds like a plan we'll have to do some research and see what's available.

Did some looking on the net last night doesn't look like there's much between us. I'll keep looking.

[Pheonix]

RE: New E-Flite P-47D Has Arrived!! PIX Added!

I did not see much either.

RE: New E-Flite P-47D Has Arrived!! PIX Added!

Hey Phoenix are you in the area also?

RE: New E-Flite P-47D Has Arrived!! PIX Added!

No, I am a very long way! Lake Elsinore, CA. I meant the forum. Very few pots.

RE: New E-Flite P-47D Has Arrived!! PIX Added!

Ok my bad yea you may be a little far.

[Rocketeer]

RE: New E-Flite P-47D Has Arrived!! PIX Added!

Greetings,

Yeah, I wasn't real optimistic on what might have existed between here and there.

I have a friend who used to fly in western OK.
I'll see if he's still involved and if so, where.

Ok I still haven't came up with anything. I may just have to come fly at your field.
