Electric LR-1 flies and fries...
well, sort of, it melted the heat shrink off of the Phoenix 80 ESC.
I'd say the electric one is actually faster than my glow powered one. It is much cleaner without an engine and muffler hanging out in the breeze. The electric one is slightly heavier, so coming out of a dive, the electric builds up more speed and retains the energy.
Another flyer (speed freak and jet jockey) estimated the speed at around 130 or so. I wouldn't know...I was too busy flying...
Aparantly, retains too much energy for the landing. The electric just doesn't want to slow down. I'll have to get more flights on it to figure out how to slow it down for the landing.
VERY NICE PLANES
