Tall Paul, you are right, the batteries can be recharged between flights, just not during one attempt (i.e. a failed launch, cannot go and top-off the batteries before next launch but if failed flight attempt, can go top off batteries while waiting turn in line)

Guys/gals,

We really do appreciate the pointers here and Iwill share them with my team!

Do not worry (Doc), we will do the design ourselves. We just wanted to get some preliminary numbers so we wouldn't spend a month messing around in a totally different range of weights/wing loadings.

Iwill champion the inclusion of this forum in our works cited page in our report however Icannot make any guarantees.

Again, Thank you for your unlimited interest in our design!

I will post the final results/specs in April after the competition.
