Default RE: MY THOUGHTS ON GOING ELECTRIC

My reason for not going EP is simple: i don't want to have to charge and keep track of more batteries then I already do. It's my understaning that with electrics, most guys are using Lipos, which AFAIK can't be quick charged. So when your 10-15 minute flight is over, don't you have to retire the plane for the rest of the day? Even if you have a 2nd or 3rd plane at the field, those batteries will run down too. I'd rather have the convenience of flying however long I want with nitro.
