Jim,

very nicely built! One can see how you saved a fair amount of weight.

Did you mount the motor on the original position firewall with standoffs or do you have a nose ring front mount setup with motor access through the top?

What kind of RPM is the Power-52 turning on the 12x12 and 5s? 6s? About 10.5K and 12.6K, respectively at full charge?

Is your wing foil down to about 14% thickness? Good penetration and speed through maneuvers now?

What kind of e-tracts are you using? Have they been reliable on the model?

I hope you don't mind the many questions - your model is quite unique among the few electric classics!

David
