Yep, its a touch of sarcasm. Right now I am in the park flier stage of electric, but ramping up rapidly to standard size. The Axi 4130/16 is one of the motors I am considering for a conversion.

I am just jumping into the electric thing, and the costs are high. I like the idea and lack of cleanup, but I will have to see if it is really cheaper per flight. If you total a glow plane, you still aren't out $279.00 bucks in batteries, just the 15 ounces of fuel.

Also, if I want to fly a similar number of flights per hour, I would need three sets of batteries, plus two astro 109 type chargers. The Batteries alone would be $420, I can by several years worth of fuel for that, and I haven't seen a good life expectancy estimate on the Lipos yet.

There are pros and cons to each, I want to try both!
