Dwain Dibley. Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Excellent....Loved it. Thanks for the post. Electric power is evolving so quickly, the sky's the limit...............to coin a phrase.......... My new project, nowhere near as cool as the Hawk, is an electrified DB Cirrus moth. I have also converted a few "vintage" models too, mostly beside fitting differences re motors, the only alterations are to the thrust lines due to the extra power available. Lovin' it......Did I already say that ?? Cheers D.D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Wilshere Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 Dad was more the ST man (Mick) than me, but I still know one end of a glow plug from another. Yes, one of the reasons for doing it was to prove and show it could be! Electric can power just about anything, its still not low cost though compared to fuel burning.
