Hello everyone,
I have a newbie question. I would like to convert a plane such as this: http://www.nitroplanes.com/df.html to electric. What do I need to take into consideration? I know I will need to build a motor mount and probably add some extra weight to the front to account for the lighter motor. Do you think I would have enough room to cram a 3000Mah lipo and esc?
If I did this I was thinking to use a 770kva motor at about 700 watts which in theory for this 4.5 pound plane should give me sufficient power. But, I'm not sure how to choose an appropriate prop.
Any assistance would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Brian
