newbie - can this glider be electrified?
Hello all, let me start off by saying I've read the basics and understand most of it.
I've been wanting a small glider I can take anywhere and fly, I've also been wanting an electric plane so why not combine them.
I purchased this glider because well I really like it however it is a small glider with limited space.
Heres what I'm looking for and have come up with.
I want about 5 minutes runtime (approx) just enough to get some altitude, and I want to use a reciever batt (no bec, because its a glider)
Heres what I'm not for sure about.
Which motor / battery combo
if I should go with a speed controller or just on off switch
and what will fit
now I really don't want to overpower this glider at all, in glow fuel an .049 would be more than sufficient (I use them on 2m)
so what do you all think / reccomend? the plans show full size equip I'll use mini servos and such.
thanks guys and hopefully it will work out well!
Heres some pics showing the glider/specs and size restraints
oh, as far as batteries and such I have no batteries or chargers so I'll have to get them as well, suggestions? (I don't know if I want to use lipo or not though)
Thanks guys!
