You could always swap out the prop for one with a different pitch to achieve the your objective.
The biggest draw back I see to an electric drive is the weight of the batteries. The A4, its fuel tank and associated hardware is only going to add up to about 500lbs. That doesn't equate to a lot of battery capacity. ~Dan H. --- On Tue, 3/2/10, Doug <[email protected]> wrote: From: Doug <[email protected]> Subject: [IC27A] Re: Atomic 4 direct drive or reduction To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, March 2, 2010, 2:26 PM Thanks for the info. I have researching electric drives lately and most seem to favor using 2:1 gear reduction coupled to a 3000 rpm motor spinning the shaft at around 1000- 1500 rpm which would be slightly above idle or low speed with an A4. --- In ic...@yahoogroups. com, "Doug" <dj2...@...> wrote: > > Does anybody know if the C27 eqipped with an Atomic 4 have reduction or > direct drive? > Thanks > Doug > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
