I don't think it would be possible for lack of a battery tray, where you gonna put the pack? The 50cc model looks like there might be room for your batteries, that one has a canopy hatch.

Yep that is the major issue with biplane electric conversions. A club member managed to do an electric conversion on a 100cc Beast but that plane has a huge canopy hatch that opens up much like a monoplane, he is able to get his four 6S 5000's in there, yes that's right 12S 10,000 mah, two in parallel to create the 10,000 size and then series connect those. A whole lotta charging for one flight!

Yeah thats a bit much. Not so much the charging time cuz I do have an awesome setup for that, but thats is a crap load of batteries. Of course if you have a lot of those batts I guess it wouldn't be that awful. Would have to have a minimum of 8 batteries. Na wouldn't be worth it to me. I bet it fly's real nice having all that power like right now with no power band to worry about or any of that. Got any vid to watch?

That particular member has batteries coming out his ears! He's been flying large electrics for years so he built up quite collection of 6S 5000 packs AND he just ordered 10 more yesterday during the TP 40% off sale.
