Some alternate power options
This is to all who have purchased my "tiny MOO" plans - the plans call for a Speed 280 direct-drive motor. The plane has been tested with a geared motor, the Max #1 (#22904) by Dymond. It is a lighter motor that runs at lower current - still enough power to fly well and LONGER. http://www.rc-dymond.com
This model should also work well with the POT 2 and POT 2A series from Hobby Lobby. http://www.hobby-lobby.com
Another battery system has also been tried - a 7 cell 270 mAh NiMh pack (the same size as 110 mAh Nicads). These batteries can be purchased from Batteries America http://www.batteriesamerica.com for $2.50 each (#AP-270 AAH)
Hope this helps... change is good!
