Don't worry about getting air into the air scoop below the motor. It leads to a dead-end cavity with no exit. If you want airflow through the scoop then you will have to cut a hole in the back of the cavity. I did just that to get airflow past my ESC.
Interesting idea to use gift cards for motor mount material. So far I have only used them to make control horns.
FUN AHEAD! Have a blast building it. Someday after I test mine with the brushless gear drive I will be modding it to direct drive too like my other birds. It really is the best method. Straight-toothed gears are always noisy.
Happy modding!
Hum, that's odd, mine has a hole in the back of that cavity at the top that feeds into the main fuselage.
I thought it was completely blocked as well until I pulled the fuselage apart and low and behold, airflow ;-)
Maybe it was a different mold, you just never know.
Yes, I've used gift card material for motor mounts, hatches, shims, control horns, very versatile material.
I can't wait to get it in the air.
It should have plenty of power and still be very light weight.
See you in the Air!
@@GroundControlRC ODD is the word. I wonder if it has anything to do with me buying a fuselage rather than a complete plane. ALTHOUGH, the fuselage came with the halves already glued together and with the motor and geardrive pre-mounted and glued in.
I stuck a light in the nose and could not see any light shining through any openings on the inside. and inspection looking in the front also saw nothing. Ah well. No biggie.
@@Doggeslife Yeah, mine has a large cavity connecting the main fuselage with that lower air inlet. It's directly beneath where the brushed motor would have been mounted.
I'm guessing it's specifically for cooling that brushed motor.
My hero!! 🤩 Here my stock motor just lost most of its power during the last flight in the middle of a hard manoeuver, and the resulting crash hopelessly bent the prop shaft and damaged the prop reductor gearbox. Just while I was thinking of converting this Jug, I saw your three vids. I hope the motor control convertor will allow to keep most of the electronics, and the stock transmitter too. If that's the case, I will surely try it, as I'm eager to see this airframe fly as it deserves! Thanks a lot, Tony, the timing couldn't have been better! 👍
EDIT: seems the receiver is different... Too bad for me, as I don't have a multi protocol transmitter yet, but it is still an interesting video I'm thankful for.
EDIT 2: Oh, my. I just saw on another video you're gonna use a volantex / eachine brick, so I can indeed do this!! You can't possibly imagine how happy and grateful I am. Thanks a lot, Tony!! 😁😊👍🤩
Hi Pierre!
Hehehe...that was good timing.
I had a small window of opportunity early this morning to perform the Brushless Re-Maiden before the Winds arrived in all their Furry!
The Test Flight went much better thank expected and with a few tweaks it will be flying fantastic.
This Module is specific to the EAR411 (V761) Brick but I did ship my Stock Receiver Brick from the P47 to the Company that developed this Module for Testing and Development.
If they are successful, there should be a (Brushed to Brushless Module) for the P47 Brick before too long.
I'm uploading the Re-Maiden Test Flight now and I'm going to try and release it at Midnight Tonight ;-)
See you in the Air!
@@GroundControlRC No need. I can order a eachine 400mm brick on BG, I much prefer those to the P-47 one. I have already a Spitfire one to order to swap my 109 one, and a new aileron servo to order: the 109 programming shenanigans just burnt the servo. I'll took a 400mm warbird like the Mustang one in addition, and I'll do the same you did. It will surely work with one of my 400mm transmitter, and those being already rigged with the dead man switch gyro off mod using the auto stunt pushbutton, this will be a ton of fun. With my 6 by 4 prop, I'll have the fastest 500mm P-47 in this part of the world. 🤣👍
@@pierre-marcelgoral8381 That's awesome!
It's hard to beat the gyro on the V761 boards as they are rock solid.
It definitely sounds like yours will be the fastest P47 around ;-)
@@GroundControlRC I might even be able to, at long last, add this small extension to the lower vertical stab the P-47 M had. (the fastest version of the real aircraft.) 😂
Do you know if it is possible to charge the new 2s lipo with the stock charger, since the plug seems to be the same? If not, I'll have to order a 2s charger too.
The hardest thing to do now for me will be to... Wait for the ships to sail and bring those parts and utilities to the UE. 😋
@@pierre-marcelgoral8381 As far as I know, those stock chargers that come with these planes are only for 1S LIPOs.
Yes, I hate waiting for aircraft and parts.
I've been waiting for an airframe to arrive for 25 days now ;-)
Nice easy to understand instructions of the mods required for the Brushless conversion.
13:25... You could probably save a few grams by cutting the Green Heat Shrink off the 12A ESC.
Thank you much!
This one will be an easy one.
Especially with the B2BL Module ;-)
Very very beautiful, thanks for sharing my friend 👍🤩
fully watched 👌
Thank you much!
It's a fun project ;-)
Great video! I kept looking at that plane too an hearing how slow it was and just telling myself " Needs a tiny 2s motor." Lol. Another great fun conversion I personally recommend is taking any of the Eachine 400mm series planes and gutt it, Take a XK A220 - P40 Warbird 400mm Gut it, Then take the motor out of the gear box assembly of the Eachine; then insert it into the XK A220 - P40 Warbird, and insert the motor into the P-40's Gearbox and secure with small glue. Personally I love the way the XK P-40 is able to be disassembled by screws ect., the Eachines are just Glued and require a lot of precision slicing. Now you have a Modified Eachine P-40! Flys Faster and 10x more stable than what the makers originally made for the XK A220 P-40. Keep up the good videos man!! -David
Thank you much David!
I've been wanting to perform this conversion for a while but just didn't have the time.
It's really a stable airframe just under-powered.
I wish more mfg would use screws instead of gluing everything in place.
This P47 is the easiest conversion I've performed so far as the main wing is bolted on and not glued.
Those eachine mini warbirds really have good brushed motors and gearboxes.
That mini p51 still had the best thrust-to-weight ratio of any brushed motor plane I've flown.
I bet the P40 had much more power using that motor ;-)
Do you have pictures of how you do the wiring work . Thankyou for the awesome videos and hard work you do for us Mr
Thank you much!
I don't, but instructions, diagrams, and images are included with the module.
The wiring is very simple, (2) wires to the brushed motor pads, (1) wire to the Brushed ESC FET, Voltage, and ground.
Then Voltage, Ground, Signal to the Brushless ESC.
Woopee, get it in the air.
I hope to have it in the air Friday if the weather hold.
This is going to be fun ;-)
A good idea with this one is to buy a set of prop savers with props. I'm running a 3 blade currently on mine with the saver and 0 issues. The stock prop set up is a bad design.
Yes, I like the pop-off prop design on the brushed motor and gearbox planes.
That works well as a prop saver and also protects the gearbox.
On brushless motors I prefer direct connection on the props but prop savers can definitely be used.
This plane is very high performance with a brushless power system.
Did you convert yours to brushless as well?
I need to replace the motor with a new stock one. Do i need to split the foam to replace the motor?
Is that the only way to remove the motor?
The Motor housing in glued into the nose of the fuselage so I don't know of any other way to remove or replace the motor.
@@GroundControlRC Thank You!
@@1991LooseChange You are most welcome.
See you in the Air!
Oh, my goodness, did not know about this small module !
This can be great when you have drone parts around and find a second hand plane on the web at 10-20 bucks.
Already converted some planes to brushless, but got rid of the electronics, but there was no stabilizer. What is interesting here is that you can keep servos and stabilization
Very cool module!
I agree, using this module you can keep that receiver brick, the (2) servos, and the gyro.
I was always having to replace all the electronics as well.
Fun project. I'm paying close attention for my own conversion. Which receiver brick did you buy to replace the p47's brick? The small circuit board mounted next to the aileron servo is the on/off switch?
Hi Mike!
Yeah, I needed an easier one to convert this time ;-)
I'm using the V761 Brick out of my old Volantex Sport Cub 500.
This Brushed to Brushless Module was designed specifically for that V761 Brick.
Since I needed to test the Module it gave me a good reason to start this Brushless Conversion ;-)
Yeah, that little tiny board next to the aileron servo is the On/Off Switch....I had completely forgotten it had an On/Off Switch.
I guess I always had it in the On Position...hehehe.
I'd like to test this Module on the Stock Brick of the P47 as well if I can figure out where on that board I need to tap the signal to the Brushed ESC.
I think this P47 as a Brushless Plane should fly really well.
@@GroundControlRC I have 761 module from the trainstar( I think). Going to put it in my f949 cessna (yes another plane you reviewed, no I'm not stalking you, although my hanger looks frighteningly similar to yours), and thinking I'll do this brushless conversion as well. I didn't hear you mention this, that when you buy a 761 brick you have to be aware that each has a specific mounting direction, right side up or upside down. Unless you plan to fly inverted, the mini mustang brick won't work in the p47. Actually sounds fun!
@@1mikeb Hi Mike!
Those planes do sound strangely familiar ;-)
All are great flying airframes indeed.
Good point, I'll have to try and remember to mention that in the next video regarding this plane.
It would be a pain having to mount the brick upside down ;-)
Bonjour, merci pour ta vidéo, j'essai de transformer mon P47 mais dans la photo du câblage complet ne me permet pas de savoir ou se connecte le fil jaune qui va du petit module à la carte V761 sur le moins du moteur ou ??? peux tu me répondre s'il te plait Merci d'avance
Hi Serge!
If you're wiring for a 2S Setup like I did the Large Yellow Wire is the Power Lead which connects to the ESC BEC +5V Output wire and the Small Yellow Wire connects to FET Gate of the Brushed ESC on the V761 Board.
I can't provide the documentation or a link to the documentation as per the vendor but you should have received a link to download the documentation for the B2BL Module.
If you didn't receive that link I'd email them so you can download those documents.
I would have been lost without them.
@@GroundControlRC Merci pour votre réponse rapide, je ne sais pas ou se branche le Small Yellow Wire je ne comprends pas à quoi correspond le "FET Gate of the Brushed ESC on the V761 Board".
Si vous avez le lien de téléchargement cela me sera très utile. Merci beaucoup pour votre aide.
@@SergeDanna You are most welcome Serge!
I was told by the vendor not to provide that documentation or links to the documentation.
I guess they didn't didn't want me to do that in case they moved the documents or updated the documents.
Here is the link to their B2BL Product page with a contact link at the bottom of the page.
www.laserbeelpm.com/b2bl.html
Unfortunately, the documentation has to come from them.
The documentation also includes an image of exactly where the wire attaches to the V761 Board.
I hope that helps.
@@GroundControlRC Merci pour votre aide, j'ai envoyé un mail avec un code qui était avec la carte pour avoir la documentation, espérons qu'ils seront aussi rapide que vous.
Cordialement
@@SergeDanna You are most welcome Serge!
Why don’t you show how u build it
Hi Drew!
I do all of this in my not so spare time so I have a limited amount of time in which to get things done.
I will be posting a video soon that talks about all the things I did to convert this plane to a brushless power system.
It takes much less time for me to do that otherwise I wouldn't have time to do it at all.
I try to take still photos of the process when I can as that is much better IMO than a shaky out of focus video with my hands in the way as I did in this video ;-)
I'll also provide My Setup File, OpenTX Model File, and Motor Mount Templates for download on our Facebook Page and should have that posted next week.
See you in the Air!
