What is the size and projected weight of the Ultimate? I am not familiar with that particular version of the Ultimate.

If memory serves that is a 1.20 size plane designed for fuel. This plane would probably need around a 10S lipo set up or 12S A123 and the weight will probably not be very good. Could it be done sure but for you first e plane I would pick something designed for E power from the start.
