Best option for electric self starting glider
Ha, ha; so nice to see so many optimists still exist in gliding.
The idea of a duplicate electric engine/battery system must
bring a smile to those existing realists who already own an
electric glider.
I suppose the thought that twin systems just doubles the
chance of failures has been noted? In the power world there
seems to be no obvious safety advantages in having two
engines. What do they say: "In a twin the remaining working
engine gate you safely to the accident site"....
