Performance predictors
Up one levelPrograms to predict your airplane's performance. You input your chosen batteries, ESC, motor, gearbox and propeller, together with some info on the aerodynamics of the airplane, and you get a report with recommendations and predicted performance. Great for running side-by-side comparisons of different combinations of equipment.

- MotoCalc Electric Flight Performance Prediction Software
- MotoCalc is probably the most popular flight prediction software. Just answer a few simple questions, and get a list of set-ups that will give the performance, duration, and flight characteristics you're looking for.
- Electricalc (ECalc)
- ECalc predicts performance and can run comparisons for motor, battery, gearbox and prop combinations, for $40.
- Eflight 101 - Online Performance Predictors
- You might want to check out some online performance predictors. usually not as complete as the programs, they should be good for comparisons and rough estimations of performance.
- Model Aircraft Performance Calculator and Software
- Interesting performance calculator, available as a rotary slide rule, or as sofware.
- Simple motor data calculator - RC Groups
- A simple calculator for static thrust, pitch speed and more.
- Barry's Model Aircraft Page - Goodies
