C-160 ELECTRIC CONVERSION
Hey guy my first post on a project that im very proud of Ok this is to be my pride and joy the one i can savour. i think its a cm pro c160 72" wingspan. fibreglass fuz and balsa covered foam wings the set up i will install is the following 2x 1100kv 3548 motors 2x 70Amp esc's 1 3s 4800 kokam lipo seperate 7.4v 2250 lipo for r/x servo with bec so far i have installed servos towerpro 5010 which at 6v produce 6kg torgue i have done inital test of motors on 10x7 prop which on 3cell takes about 45amps full throttle at 10000 rpm which equates to 90amp total. on 2 cell it draws 28 amps full throttle with 7-8000 rpm. totalling 56 amps. so imy iniotial option will be 800 watts of power and have the option of 400 watts . im estimating a all up weight of 3kg which is 6.61 lbs this equates to 120 watts per pound which will provide a sporty performance. Its not like i need to do a knife edge wit hthis one eh lads on 2 cell power it will be lighter but have a ratio of 60 watts per lb which would make it the power of a weak glider. i mean if this item comes at 2.5kg all up then i have a aerobatic plane etc. so the build, i have used insulation tape for windows, motor mounts needed to be extended to allow perfect fit for naccelles. i used a 1/4 ply to add further strenth to existing mount and som wide piece of ply to cover the 5cm of distance i needed to make up. have a look at pics and ill keep you posted. for your info i have used 12 awg wire from speedo to batt and have kept existing 14awg on the speedos, i have used 6mm bullets for all connections for least resistance. any comments appreciated [IMG]http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr48/rizlaw2008/100_2426.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr48/rizlaw2008/100_2427.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr48/rizlaw2008/100_2428.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr48/rizlaw2008/100_2429.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr48/rizlaw2008/100_2430.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr48/rizlaw2008/100_2431.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr48/rizlaw2008/100_2432.jpg[/IMG]
