Charles, The Albuquerque Soaring Association is recommending for its F5J 'outrunner' class brushless motors like the Hacker A20-20L. While you're not interested in competition, you will definitely have more 'scoot'.

[RCSE] Wind Dancer Motor Upgrade Charles Eaton Sat, 21 Jan 2006 19:28:44 -0800 Have a speed 400 motor with planetary gearbox with 3-cell LoPo's in my PoleCat Wind Dancer. Want to upgrade the motor to a brushless system. I do not fly it in competion - it's a fun flier for me. I just want more scoot to get to altitude.
