Default RE: Is it Electric really worth the trouble ?

Some numbers...

I've flown 870 flights in the last three years. My original TP 5000's have between 130 and 225 flights and I still fly them regularly. I figure I'm at $2.17 per flight with those packs. I picked up 4 new 5300's at the start of this year. With that investment, I'm at $3.45 per flight….but I have all the fuel I need for next year!
