Dave. I agree with your analysis - more thrust and airspeed required. Yes, 2S will cure both shortcomings, but I believe that there are simple solutions as well. The 1104 is a low-speed, high torque motor, and will pull a lot more pitch on a 5” GWS prop - as you surmised. Try a 5 x 4, and even go larger if you have them. You are completely welcome to borrow and try any of my range of props. I am trying 5 x 4 3 bladers on the 1104 motors on my Mosquito. Another option is the 1106 motor, which fits on the same footprint and swings bigger props. Again available to borrow and try. I should get to MM next Wednesday with props and motors
Hi, Alex. Thanks for the info - I'm sure that I'll get the plane flying well soon - I have lots of help and support - Snoopy is in good hands! Stay tuned!
