Default RE: Stupid beginner question

Just came back from our local AMA field. I was the only electric flier out of 3. The others burned almost $50.00 worth of fuel in their twin engine large scale Cessna's. I figured my hour of flying cost me about 10 cents worth of electricity. If fuel continues to increase in cost I can see many fliers changing to electric. I can charge my planes on solar panels 2-- 48 watt panels on my motorhome or a portable 18 watt unit that rolls up.
