Here in California our gas powered little weed whackers, chain saws and leaf blowers now have catalytic converters, and run like c**p. [:'(] I’m not kidding!
I like it when I see guys working out the details on electric speed deltas so that those of us that have nitro in our veins can convert to electrons and not create a total dog of a plane. I'll sit on the sidelines a bit longer to see how the prop, motor and battery combinations pan out.
Catalytic converters on chain saws may be a sign there are too many people on this planet. Some day it will make its way to Oklahoma. [

I am also watching the electrics making progress. I will probably end up using Li-Po batteries since I am such a weight freak. Seeing an electric delta at 150 + mph with a 5.5" prop will probably push me over the edge. I think it will happen by Spring.
