Some really nice looking airplanes there! I would say that you are without a doubt a certifiable "speed freak".

I am interested in your Prototype Scimitar - E, is it about the same size and weight of your other IC powered airframes?
As I understand it your limited to something like 2.6KW hrs as you upper limit of power for each flight. If you don't mind what type of motor do you use in that type of setup?

Regards
Paul

Status: offline 		the eletric version is the same like the IC version.
Only the cover ist modified.
The engine ist a turnigy T600 at  3+2YY at 6S, peak 210A on 7x10 APC.  29500 U/min
ESC is the 200a China thing with another heat think. (from a ATI graphics card)



so very cheap, but good to 370 - 380 km/h
but it is possible to get 10s into the plane

the limit in the eletric class (German speedcup) 42V ! thats it 

the prototyp is the first version of all scimitar!cause it is easier for the first test flights with an eletric engine.

sry for my bad english

Thanks so much for sharing info on your setup! Speeds of that type on that setup is really impressive. I love the modification of the ESC with a ATI graphics card ESC, it proves my idea that with adequate cooling you can really push the limits of an electric setup.
Good luck with your setup
Very impressive 230-240 mph with an electric!
And thanks again for the reply
Paul

Edit to add:
Sascha no need to apologize for you English you do very well.

The Great Planes Viper is about as easy a jump into fast planes around. With a TT .40 or any other decent .40/.46 you will see 120 pretty easily.

after a few years of mourning, self pity and the worse run of luck any man should endure, i think i am going back in the shop fix up a few things and start burning some fuel again!
a local man started a flying community before the real estate market tanked and has been begging me to fly at his airfield since he hasn't sold any lots. air strip has been clayed and packed and was actually ready to pave but he didn't get that far. i need a good swift kick in the maximus and since my best friend and flying partner passed, no one has done it!
just mulling over still, but it is a high possibility.....henry


Henry.....Revver Bro #7, glad to see you back in the fray. Good luck to you Brother.
