Hi All,

This Air truck is a slow flyer. I like slow flyers as a beginner, so started building the same.
This is done using 5mm caro and ready plan. slightly I made some changes to this plan.

5mm Coro?  What is your target AUW? Will the electronics be able to fly this bird Huh? If it flies slow enough for a complete plane noob (read me Grin ) would you please share the plans? From the looks of the airframe, it may tend to be tail heavy. Best of luck!

Well, for a plane of this size ( from the pics, it does not seem to be a very small plane) 1000 KV won't suffice. Go for atleast 1800 KV. The prop size and servos what u chose seems to be all right. Plus, ESC will change if u change the motor. I fell 35 Amp Esc will be required. here.
From the pics, it seems to have a span of about 1200 mm plus minus
How much is the span and AUW? . that will help you decide the motor, prop and esc.
regards,
Aditya.

Did you use a wing spar? If you haven't flown it yet, consider using a spar (wooden, Alluminium or CF) or the wings may flap or flutter.
