OK. for those that have not lost interest (because I have taken so long) I WILL have the Nurse ready for Saturday. The re-tracks will probably NOT be working and the plan now is to hand launch and "belly" land it. I'll have to come up with something I can attach to the bottom to protect it though... any ideas?

Here are the bench numbers I get with the suggested APC 10x7E prop...

338 Watts
34.5 Amps

Remember that the ESC is 50A/4A BEC and the motor can handle 600 Watts I think!?!

So, using Bill's formula for sport planes, 49 onces (flight ready weight of plane) x 6.25 (Watts per once) = 306.25 Watts. So, I seem to be about were I need to be... enough power without over doing it!
