First of all, I have very little knowledge/understanding of electric flight. With that said, I've received a couple of old Sterling models that can be built as rubber-band, free flight, u-control, or three channel r/c. I thought they would be great candidates for electric r/c as opposed to glow. What do you think? Can I go ahead and build, then add electric power? Should I try and create ailerons or leave as a three channel?. Any thoughts or input would be much appreciated. I want to start building. The Piper vagabond below is the one I'm considering first as it is an easier build than the Stinson.
