I NORMALLY BUILD and fly fuelpowered
models. Through the years I’ve
constructed several 1⁄2A designs which I
have flown in local school yards and parks,
but as the local population has grown, the
noise associated with the aircrafts’ engines
has made these fuel-powered models
unwelcome. Electric power seemed the
obvious solution, but for a long time I
resisted, mainly because of the higher
weights and short run times I perceived to be
common with Electrics.
