Seagull Decathlon electric

Motor: JP C35 20-8 1150RPM/V

Battery: JP EnErG 2100 MA 3 cell

ESC: Castle Creations 35A

Prop: 10x6 APC electric

There is a range of four of these models, all of which are desiged specifically for electric flight.

They will all fly on the same power set up, utilising a 3 cell 2100 MA lipo.

This range of models has been designed specifically for electric flight which means that the air frame is extremely light and is equipped with a motor mount specifically for a brushless outrunner motor.

There is also a large air intake under the front of the aircraft which ensures more than adequate cooling for the motor and the battery.

This particular model is a real joy to fly and would make an ideal second model.

With just over 300W of power, it will perform mild aerobatics with ease and easily give 15 minutes plus of flight time.

With a little bit of time spent adding your own pilot and details, it would make a very scale-like model.

Unfortunately screen grabs of these graphs are not the best quality, however you will see that the:

Max current was 37.75Amps.

The average current for the flight was 4.91Amps.

The minimum voltage was 8.43Volts.

The Max power was 322.99 Watts.

These figures show that we need to use a J.P EnErG 20C Lipo as the battery voltage dropped below the level that we would normally like to see

Model-pro Ltd carry out a lot of in-flight testing of models to establish the correct equipment for our customers to use.
