Been planning a Zippkit's Crackerbox build this winter. Not sure if I want to do a V-Box, or A-Box.
I used to fly giant scale electric planes, and I still have several 5000mah+, 3,4,5,6 & 8s packs, so I am considering building it electric.
Has anyone done this conversion?
Any motor and esc recommendations.
 
I would highly advise against it. if you insist on an electric conversion look at the provee cause it has a hatch at least. electric in a gas hull is kinda beyond the threshold of efficiency. it takes 8s to equal a basic $135 chinese engine. and 12s to maybe keep up with a 29/30+ mod engine. Its far more expensive and significantly heavier over a gas engine.

I have a 12s ESC I took out of my FE conversion. engines will have to be 5692 and up and you will want an RPM around 18k to fit the appropriate size props.
