I'm wanting to convert my existing Aeroworks extra 260 to an electric setup. Many reasons why, and I know that it'll not be a cheap affair... It has a DA-85 on a canister right now, and for the way I fly I've actually got an excess of power - full throttle is so rare that I'm sure I don't need to match the DA 100% for grunt. I'm still not confident of my 3d skills to the extent that I throw my only 33% plane around that way, so in the mean time I'm happy as long as it has strong vertical rather than insane power.
I've been looking at a setup using a Hacker A80-8 or A80-10, Master Spin 170 and 12s5000, 25c lipos.... but as I'd be buying from scratch for the motor, ESC and lipos, I'm open to anyone's advice or experience. I've searched a hell of a lot online, and not really got the reassurance I'm after that I'm not blowing cash on the wrong gear.
