I'm building a ELCO 80 PT109 in 1:20 Designed by  "bensworx"
I'll be using 3 Exceed RC Rocket 3025‐920kv  out runner brushless motors as recommended by Ben, and a 4S high capacity LiPo or 3 small ones.
He also recommends 40A ESC FWD only (to save money) for the outer motors and a 40A with revers for the center motor.
