Firebat converted to nitro, Any suggestions
I have a great planes firebat that I just picked up. The battery seems really heavy and overall I am doubtful of it's capability to fly well. I have deep nitro roots and my norvell .061 seems like it would mount up nicely. Does anyone have any experience with this or making any other mods to improve the flight.

P.S. I have a second airframe that I have considered mounting two of the old Midwest RK-049 fan units to. THey will fit under the wing next to the fuse like F-18 engines and with norvell engines, they make decent thrust. Since this is my first " foam slow flyer" do you think it would self destruct from the weight/forces that would result?
