Seagull PC9
#3

The 9 is almost done, It will be running on a Hacker A50-14S 425kV motor on a Turnigy 6S 4000 through a HK Mosfet 85 amp ESC, spinning a 12 x 12 APC prop. Ive spent a lot of time modifying the small forward compartment to fit the ESC and battery. Heat was always a problem with my old ones ESC due to high loading and poor air flow, so I have fixed that issue by making a big mod to the front of the aircraft so the ESC now gets external cool air flow right off the prop. I had to make the mount removable so the ESC can come in from underneath through my battery compartment upgrade, and I had to keep the airframe integrity up to par will making all these modifications.
           
Im pretty happy with the way it all turned out. Ecalc has me at a little over 180 kmph but time will tell.
By the way Ecalc recons my old setup is 132 kmph
