Electroflight Team Aims To Fly 300 MPH On Batteries


Whoopee.

Let me know when they can fly 4 hours at at least 120 knots.


I would think that they could reach 300 mph without going to all the
extra effort being described, since some current homebuilts do that on
conventional 400 hp Lycomings, carrying 2 people.

Take an SX-300, replace the Lycoming with electric motor and batteries,
and you should be able to do it for enough time to set the record.
