Bo:
Each engine has a Froemco 2600mah Li-ion and regulator located in the nacelles. I have a single 40oz B&B fuel tank in the fuselage and the engines pull the fuel that far with no problems. I have about an hour on the ground thus far. The radio batteries are located in the front under the dashboard. I am using two batteries with a Smart-Fly regulator and panel. At first, I used two Foemco 2600 mah which is plenty expecially since all servo's are non-digital. All flying surfaces have Futaba 9206's at 6 volts which far exceeds AMA's requrements of 100oz. per surface. Another AMA requirement is engine kill switches (not just throttle trim kill), which I do not have.

I switched to the 5200mah Froemco li-ions when I discovered I had to add several pounds to the nose for the cg. I figued I might as well add some usable weight instead of all lead........... Hopefully, if it flys, I can start removing lead nose weight. It seems to me that this plane should have a fairly wide cg range since the full size was designed for several passengers who sit behind the cg. With the gear down, it is very nose heavy at the suggested cg of 4 5/8" behind the firewall. Will probably require flaps at all times when the gear is down.

Sure would be nice to find someone who has one of these flying so that I could pick their brain, but alas, none to be found.
