I have done a bunch of electric conversions. The main problem is always mounting the motor and getting the battery to fit properly. Most of the time you need to make a battery tray and may have to cut throught the firewall to get the CG in the right place using the battery. If you use 110-130 watts per pound for the motor selection your plane should fly great. Remember all warbirds need a lot of speed before take-off and also can stall violently if you get too slow. For safety you can use a switch just like gas to turn on the receiver when ready to fly. Otherwise the shunt works well too.
