Sport E-Gas Pod for Beast

[bobzilla]

My friend Jim, who flys at Eldorado Dry lake, Boulder city, NV, has finished "podding" his Beast electric. The pod simplifies changing from an electric driven to a much more robust gas driven biplane..The Beast with Pod.
Here are some pics and videos on the conversion.
Both version have flown and the gas version is awesome.
The gas engine used is the DLE 20 (rail mounting).
The electric is as recommended by Horizon.

Sweet!! Very nicely done! If you go to a field that noise is an issue, just go electric!

haha..correct..but if you go to the field and really want to show off what the Beast can really do, change up to the gas pod.

Its been done before, but I have never seen it done to something that size. Always smaller planes.
