| http://www.greatplanes.com/airplanes/gpma1475.html Got one of these currently all built up and Im looking to convert it to run electric. I dont know anything about what parts to use so i figured i would ask you guys what setup to run. What cells motors and so on? The glw models usually run about 100 mph, and I would really just like to have similar performance. any help would be greatly apreciated, thanks guys. |

You will need a power system that can put out at least 800 watts for fast performance. To get watts, take amps and multiply by battery voltage. It is probably a good idea to run a 4 cell, 4000 mah lipo in it to get good lfight times, and strong power.
