If not already done or planned to do; maybe read up on the application suggestions of each from Coverite website and then go from there.

Re: Best Covering for a light fragile airframe

Re: Best Covering for a light fragile airframe
Sorry for the delay i response

it was designed for a Brushed motor but i put an Emax GT2205 and an Emax 12amp ESC, the prop is a GWS 8040, servos are HS55's
