Hello People,
Has anyone tried to convert a 2c model to electric?
I have a CAP 232 /10 that has a recomended 2c 10-- 15. WS 36" Length 31" weight 25 -- 28oz.Wing area 228sq in.
However I can not find any info on the details.( Motor, Batteries etc)
If anyone can steer me in the right direction, I would be most grateful.
Many thanks,
Sidekick

Hey CSISFUN,
Thanks very much for your assistance, I will go for that and see how we go.
You didn't say what reduction gear, so I suppose it isn't that critical.
Again, many thanks,
Sidekick

No problem, I just came back from flying.
My friend flew his Piper Cub (15 sized) on a 400 Direct drive with 7 cells. It flew.
Must mean that it can't hurt to go 10 cells, 400 gearbox.
As for reduction, I have no idea.
