T-Motor F90 Pro and 60A Cobra ESC
I recently tested a new 6S power system for my FF-Demon foamboard RC plane. I was looking for something to push the plane over the 100mph mark. Frank recently tried the T-Motor F90 Pro drone motor on his Strix Goblin RC plane. After seeing how it worked out on that plane I decided to try it on the FF-FF-Demon. The F90 motor I used is a 2806.5-1300kv motor. Note it is also available in 1500kv, version which I already have and will test in the future also. One other thing to note, drone motors usually do not come with an X-Mount. So you may have to source an existing one, buy one or make one. I had some old motors with X-Mounts and found one that fits. The F90 Motor has mounting screw holes at the 19mm x 19mm diagonal spacing. For the ESC I used was a Cobra …
I got the 80A Cobra Race Wing ESC and added it to the FF-EPP-JET. It worked out pretty good, which it should have as that is the specific ESC for these motors. The plane flew at over 130mph! This old plane is a bit of a handful to keep control of. The old servos and long control rods have a bit of play in them, combined with the torque roll it was a bit squirrely! Anyway it made for a fun and exciting flight! I will need to add this motor and ESC setup to another plane soon!
