It is the Hangar 9 Miss America. It will be 20 volts or so at 40 amps or so. 8 to 9 pounds.

I have a couple in the 250-300 watt range, the latest is a conversion of a Goldberg Falcon, the original built in 1966 for my Dad. I have had it in the shop for 15 years and decided to elictrify it. Put on a bigger rudder and elevator and went to a tail dragger and it looks like a different airplane.

I have a couple in the 100-150 watt range also that are nice but none of them has the freedom of fear that the little foamys have. It is nice to know the foam breaking will protect the gear and you can get back to flying in just a few minutes.

I just ran across the plans for my old Ambroid Charger while cleaning the basement. The block under the tank is about 16 pieces of 1/4 inch lamination and the wind shield is the same. It took forever to buld the beast with hundreds of bits of wood and laminations using Ambroid (no zap, etc), granted it is still around, but the amount of emotional content invested in it is a lot more than a little foamy.

$500 for batteries is toooo much. Mine will have $300 worth in it and it starts to make me nervous. The costs of motor and ESC is just about equal to a gasser and all else is the same. But I figured I had to fly 200 flights (if memory serves) to break even on fuel costs. I am not sure I can help from crashing in that length of time!

.... if I could sniff her....... no wonder we get thrown out of parks sometimes. Did she offer to show your butt her Shepard's teeth close up and personal :-)
