kentong33: The Cub 46 is a Good Plane To Begin With! Cheers:JP :)

not that your being very specific, but yes the H9 Cub is a good start, It will my first 'Big' electric model (i'm getting it next week), and its relatively simple and cheap.

How about a 1/4 scale Cessna 152? Although not sold as an electric model,easy enough to convert.Flys like a big trainer!

I`m not selling the Cessna,just informing what a nice plane it is to convert to electric.I`m using the HXT 63-64 motor in this,runs great on 8s.What do you think of these motors?

Yes, I realized you were not selling the Cessna & although I'm not a BL motor expert, for $65 this motor does an OUTSTANDING job in this 21 lb aircraft on 8s . It's a bit humorous to me to inject this motor, cost, & usage into discussions herein & have some "experts" say "it can't be much good because it doesn't cost enough" ! What kind of mindset are we instilling into our youth ?
Sorry if I've gotten off topic

I really like my Senior Telemaster. Mine is electric. Using A123 cells. Flew it this morning for 25 minutes, recharged, then another 15 before I was tired. Flew it this evening for 35 minutes, recharged, then for another 10 minutes before I was tired.

It's just a bigger trainer, but a joy to fly.
