Greener = more ideal
  • Cost wise, AT3520 KV720 and AT3520 KV550 are both good options.

    • KV720 gives 200g more thrust, but is less efficient in power consumption and thrust/watt

    • AT3530 580KV is a good option too, more thrust

  • Investigate using drone motors later, they seem more efficient

  • APC 14 x 7 inch prop is good. There’s no strong correlation b/w prop diameter and wingspan, the prop depends on the motor and weight of the plane. However, 25 - 30% of wing span is acceptable for prop diameter.
