CONVERTING GAS TO ELECTRIC

I am hoping to get a new kit (not for X-mas [

]) but out of my tax refunds [sm=greedy.gif][sm=greedy.gif]. I am planning on converting a model (maybe something like a PT-25 or something similiar) to a electric-power, I will have a thread on it of course.

I already have a question: using the model mentioned here as an example, what power electric engine would be a good companion for a .25 size kit?

Can basically all kits be converted to electric? What trainer would you recommend to be a good electric-convertion kit?

Is there a convertion chart to determine what electric power replaces a gas engine? What power electric would I get to convert a .15? A .20 - .25? And how bout a .30 -.40?

All opinions and suggestions welcome.

Thank you and very merry Christmas and a happy and safe New Year!!!
