Will the esc and motor take a 4s1000mah battery?
 Kellyann 16240 points
Sean when you say take??? Well it will work but more that full power for any length of time will burn out the ESC. The improvement is not great because you do increase the weight. I hope this helps. If you must got at least 30a esc.

it's a 100 kmh plane, super fast for this small motor. roll is too fast too, i set the dual rate at 70pcnt with 25pcnt expo and the roll is still fast, the only issues are the cross winds, almost lose the plane. toss it super fast and level or the tipstall is inevitable. super plane!! :-)

The F-8 was easy to build and get ready to fly. Flying was a big disappointment. The motor setup is not sufficent to power the plane adequatly. Worse than that, the eleveron servo broke on the maidenflight. The red wire to the servomotor came of the servo-controler. After the repair of the servo of this I tried a second flight. This time the screws that are holding wings got loose by the vibration of the motor/fan. This time the plane stalled immediately. No way to recover. Make shure this does not happen to you. So glue the wings to the fuselage. I would not recommend this plane due to the underpowerment and the issues described.
