Ditto, very nice indeed! Did you hand cut all the checkerboard on the bottom?

RE: OMP Fusion Picture Gallery
I enjoyed the past five years flying the OMP Fusion 90. I liked the Saito 125 but vibration was such an issue, I had to use a bladder tank with a special pump to get fuel in or out.
Sad to say, I let the plane set up for a while and the Saito bearings rusted and the valves froze up. Horizon overhauled the Saito 125 for $80 and it runs good again. However,
I have converted many of my planes to electric and I'd like to do the same for the five year old Fusion 90. I bought a E-flight power 110, and a castle Phoenix ice 100 . To my
surprise, the wiring is 10 guage.
Will standard Deans Plugs work on the battery side of the speed control with 10 guage wire ?
What size prop should I use if I use the 5 cell 5000 Thunder Power Batteries that I have laying around ?
Must I really use 8 cell batteries that the Power 110 Outrunner asks for ?
The nose of the Fusion 90 seems strong even after five years of Saito 125 vibration. Will 3/8 ply be strong enough for the Power 110 ? Are there suggested e-conversion firewall configurations available for the Fusion 90 ?
