hi,I am a beginner, so can any tell me if I can use the following gear for a 24" blue baby-
Motor-1700kv
ESC-12A
Prop-60x30
battery-650mAH,3 cell.
If not please suggest the best for it. :help:
A 1700kv motor with a 6x3 prop is not meant for trainer airplanes like Blu-Baby.
Motor kv for it should be in the range of 1100kv to 1300kv and something like a 9X4.7 sf prop.
so,can Iuse this motor?

This is a pic of GT2210.
and I am thinking to use 20c 1000mah or 20c 800mah.
Well, I feel that a 204 watt motor would be an overkill for Blu-Baby. Look for something like 120-150 watts. This is just my opinion but do wait for the expert opinions on this.
100 to 110 watts would be enough with a9x4.7 sf prop or a 8043 and 1300 mah 3s lipo
i suggest the best motor for it willl be a fc 2812
thank you
so now i am using
fc 2812 motor 1534kv
prop 7x4
battery 20c 1300mAh-3cell 11.1
ECS 7A
are these ok?
go for a 10 amp preferably 15-18 amp...dont use 8 amp
in that case I will EMAX ESC 18A
can we use cycle spokes for reinforcement?
spokes are not a very good reinforcement. (even i thought of using !!)
as they easily bend & are just 1 feet in length
try using thin 3*3mm wooden strips .....
better wait till some senior answers !!
Carbon fiber rods are available now at LHS. Spokes bend easily, not good for reinforcements
Yes carbon fibre is the best option available.
what is lhs?

See if this suits your requirements - http://www.rcindia.org/for-sale/hk-7x-2-4ghz-7ch-tx-rx-v2-%28mode-1%29-for-sale/

Is this a good radio???

Well, it depends on your budget. If your budget is around 3.5k then you don't have much options.
what does k stand for?
k stands for 1000. So 3.5k = 3.5X1000=3500
are there any better radios for 3k
For 3k, this is the best option.
thank you
what for is a prop saver used?
???
Prop savers are used to attach prop to the motor shaft. The advantage of this over others is that, in a nose dive crash, the rubber band allows the prop to move and absorb the impact of the crash, thereby saving the prop.
9 ch is also good but a bit expensive i guess...
