Status: offline 		Yeah, I've experimented with PC fans too, but they've never actually flown in any of my planes (or cooling EDFs, for that matter). As an alternate approach: you don't even need an ESC... you can run them with direct current from a seperate battery pack (Small LiPo, NiMH, NiCD, even Duracells) with an on/off switch inside the battery hatch. Or getting more fancy: a remote toggle switch tied to a channel on your TX. I get a little nervous about adding extra circuits to my flight LiPos, but that's probably just because I don't know jack about electricity!

Should be interesting!

Beautiful! I like the trick with the removable hinge wire.

Thanks... We needed the rudder to be removable to get to the tail wheel retract mounting bolts through a small hole in the fin post. Now that I think about it... It will also be very handy to maintain the rudder pull-pull cables and rudder horn if something breaks or wears out.

Status: offline 		Feeling real good about this battery hatch now that all the magnets are installed and everything sanded flush. No way this thing is coming off.

As far as I'm concerned... The Electron conversion is now complete.

Thinking this thing could clear your bench soon?

Made a card board template for the outer blending lines. After locating the scoop, I put a 2" diameter hole in side of fuse for a future battery cooling fan and epoxied the fiberglass turbo scoop down.

What's with the radio? Is that part of the zombie apocalypse bail out kit?
