I have been weighing my battery options. The KP-01 motor needs 3.6 volts while the RC receiver will need 4.8-6 volts. The LiPo is 4.4g, NiCd pack is 24.8 g, and NiMh pack is 34.1g. I either need to use two battery packs build a regulator for the motor. |

Made in China? Nope, soldered right here in the USA with pride and not quite enough solder (note the orange wire). It's a Pixie-7P that I was going to use to provide some sort of motor control when I convert the One Nite 28 to electric RC. |

Crocuses are the other sign that spring is on the way, these were right next to the daffodils. |

Ready for rubber powered FF. Final weight is 64 grams but landing wheel can be removed to save 2.5 grams. This is kit tissue covered with crystal clear. |

Here you can see that the AMA Racer was getting fairly high off the ground and would make about 3 large circles before winding down. |

After the Canary Don Ross says to build and fly this AMA Racer (modified of course). It gave reliable flights but it was so light that even the slightest breeze would throw it off course. |
