Very Tongue in Cheek reply from RB

Gday Paul (Getting crazier) and Kieran (Known and Certified Power Loony)

That is one hell of a motor for a teeny cub, as a comparison my glider drew a max of 16 amps on a 9*6 prop and is easily double (if not more than) the weight of the cub and flew very well (Don't laugh Kieran).

To have the cub drawing close to 30 odd amps on a 9*5 seems to be serious overkill?
Are you sure a 35mm motor is required here?
Here is what "Larry" on the HK review had to say:

I put this motor on my 35oz (stock is 25oz) modified HobbyZone Super Cub with a 8x4E APC prop, Turnigy 40 amp Plush controller, ABF 3S 2200 lipo.
9 to 11 minute flight times, depending on how many full throttle bursts.
Super Cub will darn near hover, and is real fast. Too much motor for application, but fun to fly!! I like the included 6mm shaft prop adapter and spinner.

I think this motor may be too much, happy to familiarise you with the "Too Much" concept Kieran as I know your vocab does not encompass such things.
Oddly enough I had slated one of these motors to go into my new glider as they do get very good write ups re reliability etc etc.

Actually.....stuff it, i'll just bolt the Eflite 46 on and go Siren Hunting, watch out Vella.... i'm comin to git you sucka.

Seriously though, thanks for the advice, I couldn't resist the stir up above!!!!!
