Today I will begin posting the details of very Large Electric conversion project. The Model is actually an ARC Almost-Ready-To-Cover VON EXTRA 260. The standard powerplant is a Desert Aircraft DA-150 150cc gas engine.

This plane is well know in the IMAC/TOC competitions.This model was chosen for it's very light weight and compatibilty for electric conversion. This all laser cut Balsa design has great flight characteristics for both Pattern and 3D.
The plan is to detail the main steps, and not every detail of the models construction.
