I've built quite a few Scouts using electric - typically a 3548-100 KV with an 11*5.5 prop
Decided to modify one, make it a tail-dragger, and use a 25 ASP Nitro with a 9*6 prop
Here is the log with electric, has the specs too http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/scout-15-adapted-to-corro-electric/
Brief Specs:
Span: 50"
Chord: 9"
Type: Low Winger Sport, aerobatic trainer
AUW: ~ 1.25 Kg

What a beautiful flier!
Stable and predictable, yet agile enough for most aerobatics. A real pleasure to fly
The Nitro engine gives a lot more "punch," and with a litre of fuel, can easily fly 6 sorties of 10+ minutes each on that frugal ASP
Model looks superb Sir :)
Do share video of maiden flight.
Here are some videos of the electric version

A low winger is not a trainer - it has to be flown in under power all the way till touchdown. Especially in a cross-wind

:hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff:
Finally a video, although I must have completed over 50 sorties on this!
Flew after 5 weeks, but despite the cold was a lot of fun

sir
fantastic flying and beautiful built. I have a question why cricketers always on the air field. I live in Bhopal due to this we left three flying field . I called those team international cricketers .Now our some team are members going out side city for flying.
@sanjayrai55
Great flying....
@Arvindkharebpl
Those team international cricketers are all over India.
On Sundays they all occupy any empty ground available.
We also face such situation and have to abort our flying sessions.
Amazing stable flight. Really nice.
:thanks: guys
