[NSRCA-discussion] Glow to E lecrtic

[Grow Pattern]

Electric is a blast! No more so when you convert a glow plane and it works well.... Not  a pattern plane, nor a $5000 investment, but it did make a WWII-veteran Mustang pilot happy....

 BTW - I think that my personal experiences are still dealing with the economies of scale as these power plants get bigger and more demanding on their power sources.

Regards,

Eric.

  Now if they could make the brake regenerative, they would have something!

    Jason I hadn't heard about the brake either, any more little things to made things work better.

      Hi Jason,
      I'm venturing, or maybe I should say, wading into electric this year. You mentioned the brake eating gears. I'm sure you meant the conventional brake that flat out stops the prop. What's your thought on the Hacker f3a brake that comes with the competition version of the speed control? We haven't seen or heard much of anything about this motor or the controller since the Worlds.

      Thanks,
      Verne Koester
