Chuck,
just take your time and build it light.
Remember, it doesn't need to be as reinforced as a glow plane. You can get it in under weight. I'm sure of it. If I can get my Eclipse in there and Tom can get his Focus in I'm sure you can do it.
Good luck man..

Chad,
Yeah, I'm not sure how they'll last pulling out so much every flight. But for the weight saving, I think it's a great alternative for someone in sporsman through advanced to get into the electrics. I would really like to give them a try and see what they can handle. There are a lot of people that want to get into electric but are worried about price and weight.
The Axi helps on price and maybe these packs can help on weight for those that may want to convert a plane they already have.
I guess we'll see at some point.
Should be interesting, as is this whole learning process that all of us have undertook.
I'm all for trying the new stuff that comes out as long as the numbers are right. I won't just throw my money away on cheap stuff. I hear ya there.
