Hi Steve:

That Scorpion must  be bigger than it looks if all of those batteries fit in it.

Good luck getting them in the plane.

I stopped by Steve's last night to have a look, and man that thing is nice!  Very well made and finished. A high quality product for sure, and typical of Steve all the bits and pieces to finish it are the best on the planet!

I was thinking the extension cord would be a bummer, but then got one of my patent brilliant ideas... Bright Idea  If you're planning on fairly long distance flying, borrow a BGM-71B and take the wire spool off the back - should give you several miles of power...
for short range,  ie indoor, swipe an M26 from some unsuspecting cop and take the wire pair from the front - that'll give you about 10 meters of power...and it's win win.... you get power and any pervert who tries to muck with the plane gets fried.... This is Good

Glad to the planes are getting fixed. As far as a new vehicle, a Ferrari Van would be nice. You'd be able to move quickly out of the way of the crazy drivers out there. Wink

Re-thought the process once Todd brought up the wing loading issue so I'm going back to the original plan. Wink
