Default RE: Electric v. Glow?!

Hmm. I'm thinking of maybe going electric on a brand new LT40.It has a wingspan of 70". Is there an estimator on their site to determine the size motor and batteries I'd want to get similar characteristics to a OSMax 46AX?

I just heard about those Zippy batteries from someone in our club yesterday. I'm really interested in electric alot more now that I heard prices like that. What Extra do you have?Do you have a link / pics?

I have nine Zippy LiPos I use for my Strykers, they work great for me. HobbyCity carries them. If you buy 1kg worth of stuff from them, the express shipping is only a few bucks more, and you'll get your stuff in a week or less. Even with shipping, my 3S 2200mAh 20C packs come out to about $25 each. That's less than half what Horizon charges for a 3S 2200mAh 12C pack!
