Power:twins 55 duct fan(370 brush motor)
4channel TX and RX.
3 9g servo,
140A brush ESC

all in good working condition i like to built a new rc plane with these parts .
Please suggest me how to start....
could these parts can be used to built propeller type plane? please help

Swapnil

You can certainly re-use those parts to build a new plane. But it would be much easier to upgrade to a LiPo powered brushless system.

thanks for immediate reply
im i searched over net for replacement and upgrades but point there is no brand name or spec on the motor so i could look for same powered motor :o and more over motor i have has only 2 terminals but brushless motor on net have three terminals  :headscratch:

Here's something from the bottom of the 'GUANLI A10' page (the link you posted):

Brushless Version

WINGSPAN : 872mm
LENGHT : 968mm
WEIGHT : 450g
BATTERY : LI-PO BATTERY 11.1V-1000mAh
POWER SYSTEM : two sets of C2410 burshless motor power system
RADIO SYSTEM : 4CH RC system . 3 servos . 2pcs 25A brushlessed ESC

Brushless motors need a 3-phase supply and hence have 3 wires.

Along with it you will need a brushless ESC with three phase out put in place of brushed ESC.

You could also use your brushed setup with a LiPo. But, before you start with anything, please go through as much information as you can regarding RC electronics and construction.

This is a Ducted fan motor with ducted fans. Cant use props. You can get a A-10 from

and you fix the parts. All the Best with your flight.
