Default RE: Aurora 60 Build Thread - Electric Power

Pure methanol weighs .83 ounces per fluid ounce, or 6.63lbs per gallon. A lot of sixties use 12 or 14oz tanks. That's between 9.5 and 11.6 ounces in weight of fuel (oil does make the methanol heavier, so maybe add 1/4 ounce?).

Since I'm totally new to E-power, how much do the lipos for your Hyperion weigh?

And, I'm really enjoying your thread. Beautiful craftsmanship. So many outstanding builders in this forum, I can't say how much I've learned over the last year or so.
