prop and motor advice
You could certainly use brushless, especially if you use a prop around 50mm, I think 60mm would be a bit big for a 27" model? As you know, brushless are very powerful for their size and I like their engineering. I use nearly all brushless, …

I mainly use brushless and so can't really advise on the size of a brushed motor which would probably be the best choice. But given the size of the prop a motor with a reduction would be a good idea (pulleys and belt), which as well as taki …
