Bixler 2 Power System Upgrade

Here are two options for upgrading the Power System on a Bixler 2 if you've got the motor mount extension.

This seems to be a popular setup that many people use.

• NTM Prop Drive 28-36 2200KV / 696W (USA Warehouse)
• HobbyKing Red Brick 30A ESC (US Warehouse)
• APC style propeller 8x4-E (USA Warehouse)
• NTM Prop Drive 28 Series Accessory Pack (USA Warehouse)

Here's one that even stronger... the 10 inch prop requires you to cut into the tail boom a bit.  Andreas and I are hoping that the extra power will be worth it when it's full up on FPV and autopilot gear.

• NTM Prop Drive Series 35-30 1100kv / 380w (USA Warehouse)
• TURNIGY TRUST 45A SBEC Brushless Speed Controller (USA Warehouse)
• NTM Prop Drive 35 Series Accessory Pack (USA Warehouse)
• Genuine APC props: 10x4.8 if memory serves

(note: this motor has a limit of 32 amps, and as configured it hits 30 amps on the bench... be forewarned!)

BTW, regarding servos... you need 6 if you do the flaps.  I'm pleased with these.  If your radio can handle the mixing, you can use two channels for the flaps.  Otherwise, get a servo reverser.

• HXT900 9g / 1.6kg / .12sec Micro Servo (USA Warehouse)
• Turnigy Servo Signal Reverser (USA Warehouse)
