F-117 Stealth from RCPowers.com

Here is miy post on RC groups about my Stealth, which shows the removeable bomb drop box and camera. (The camera I put in it is not avaliable anymore, but there are newer ones out that will work well)

How to get the plans:

The Recommended motor (which does work very well):

An alternative motor and ESC I have used:

and one of these batteries

This motor does draw more amps than the Grayson one,so I have to use at least an 1800 mah battery with the cheaper motor, and even then they can be pushed to hard if you fly wide open. With the Grayson, I can use 1500's (Grayson motor pulls about 27 amps, HC motor pulls about 33). I use 6X4 apc props on both motors. I also had to reverse the shaft on the HC motor, but I also could have just mounted the motor differently. Since the prop spins at a high rpm, I have to balance the props, or they will vibrate (and ruin the bearings on the motor).
