Yup that will get her done with electrics.

Quite a few years back now I was doing some cross country flights just during the period when fail safe started to become avalible on some radios. On one route it required travelling under two railroad underpasses which caused blocked line of sight for perhaps two seconds having done this before using simpler radios no problem. But this time I had to make sure that I set the fail safe to cruse setting not idle cutoff It proved no problem and we of course tested the reaquisition time with the tranny off then on method timing it.
