Is there anything I could do to further protect the rotor from the huge centrifugal forces that are put on it? The Plettenberg motors have wrapped rotors - would this be possible on a 1950? Given what I've seen/heard about Feigao, I would never attempt this with their motors even though they're cheap to replace. |
I have been past the 50K with a Basic 5300. Lehner claims the 19 series can go up to 50K and I've heard of some guys going up to 100K in those crazy fast planes.
