Hi guys,
As per subject above.
I have read several different forum columns and web published articles on the watts-per-pound issues on planes and how to determine the aircraft power train combination for each specific aircraft weight.
All of them never detail which figures to use to determine their calculations.
Is it purely battery output wattage vs. plane's total weight?
or
Is it (ESC's Amp rating*Battery voltage) vs plane total weight?
btw.. I have with me the following:
2x HET 2W-25 kV2660 87% efficiency
2x Hobbywing Pentium 60A ESC
2x HET 6904 mini fan
2x ThunderPower 3850mAh 14.8V 25C cont/50C burst (connected parallel)
Est. weight of plane: 2.5kg approx. 5.5 lbs
