What is the difference between RC airplane and RC helicopter motors?

whats teh difference in them, if i want to drive a propeller to create lift then what why does it matter if i use a RC airplane brushless motor to build my helicopter instead of a helicoptor brushless motor??

There isn't any difference between heli and airplane motor. Just like all other motors, the KV and number of poles is different from 1 model to another. To know if you can use an RC airplane motor:

1) make sure the mounting holes fits.
2) make sure the pinion fits.
3) make sure the motor is rated sufficiently for the correct power it is suppose to deliver
4) make sure the weight of the motor is appropriate so that the CG remains at the correct spot
5) make sure the motor will deliver the correct rpm

It might be easier to use one of the proven motors rather than trying and risking structural damage to your heli. Do a search on runryder,com to see if the same motor has been used by another flyer.

What Beginners Rc airplane should i get? HobbyKing?

I am looking to get a rc airplane. Preferably under 150 for everything? If possible. I have been looking at hobby king and i was interested in the dolphin glider, would that be a good buy, For my first airplane? I understand that i would need to buy it a controller and battery and that is fine. Any other good beginners airplane?

Small planes like the dolphin can be hard to control. Go for something that is 1 to 1.5m wingspan with EPO foam

This is within your budget, but the transmitter is not a good one. It is better to get a futaba or specktrum or JR computerised transmitter with at least 7 channels.

Best is, go to the place you intend to fly, talk to the people there. Planes are not plug and fly.

What camera to use for RC airplane video footage?

Hi, I want to buy a 1080p HD camera for a RC airplane to take video footage. I want a camera that is not too heavy for my plane (although I have a large electric F4U Corsair). Any ideas from people that have HD cameras and have used them on their airplanes?

If anybody has had a good camera, could you include the youtube link showing me the quality?

go pro cameras are amazing. waterproof and basically crash proof.

make sure to put it on 1080p.

Can you drive rc cars or fly rc airplanes or helicopters in cities?

I was planning on renting out rc vehicles in Boston for people to fly around. Is this legal. Also I have seen these vehicles with cameras. Would I be allowed to take pictures with them too?
