Default Great Planes Seawind Electric Conversion

I've changed the heading on this thread as no one entered any shots,meanwhile i've built my own and thought if there are any people considering this plane for conversion this may help with your decision.I will add photo's of test 's made as much as possible ,I know I like to see them when people are making claims,it helps to see actual numbers before you spend a considerable amount of money on a project like the Seawind.I've only included information pertaining to the power system and hidden "canopy quick release" :the only mod I did other than go electric is laying in more fiberglass on the bottom both fore and aft of the main fuse former as well as the sides in front of the same former(that added 3 ounces to the plane and it's a must do for flying off snow/ice).
