Default Sig Samuri???

Built this winerong thing from a kit I purchased ages ago. Unfortunately there's never enough wind here to fly it. Anyone converted one to electric? Recommendations on power systems? Not a lot of room in the fuse...

I personally wouldn't hack it up, especially since they are not made anymore. Sell it to someone who can use it and use the money for an electric. My 2 cents. Oh yeah..... Wingerons and Pitcherons ROCK!

Of course I want to! But all my deals of late have gone south. I even tried getting rid of some of my Blingeron gear[X(] and that fell through!

Take a small road trip! If you head over to the Vancouver area, there are several slopes that will definitely support flying a Sammy. A little south of Vancouver, you have Bellingham, WA, Whidbey Island, and several more sites w/ excellent slopes.

However, if I were you, I'd load up the car and head down to the Richland, WA area and hit Kiona, Eagle, or Chandler buttes. They have enough lift that if you get bored you can probably slope your car!
