The only saving grace is if the wind clears out some of the wetness and the rain holds off until tomorrow afternoon.

OK nevermind, field board members decided to close it for the weekend.

Looks like a perfect weekend to get the Slick buttoned up.

Wonder how that power system costs. That would be so much fun. Geez man you could cover quite a bit of distance in an hours worth of flight time.

The first consumer electric airplane...? With some tweaks to the power system and ever expanding battery capabilities, I don't think it'd be a problem to get 2-3 hours out of that airplane in the air.

Just a couple years ago I remember buying a 3s 1000 30c lipo pack and thinking how little it has changed since the days of the Thunder Power 1300mah 16c packs. Then I bought some new TP 3s 900mah 55C packs recently and they were half the size and almost half the weight. The point being, battery technology is moving quickly.
