More video of the ElectraFlyer C with pricing and explanation. Flying times with the largest battery pack are 1 hour 30 minutes and with soaring times a bladder busting 5 hours! Prices for the largest Lithium Ion battery pack is $8500, the propulsion kit (18 HP engine & electronic speed control) is $4200, and the charger is $895. For those who do not know airplanes these prices are bargains compared to 20-50k it costs for certified reciprocating engines. The most amazing part is the TBO on the Electric motor is 100,000 hours or 50-100 x longer than any standard gas powered engine. Links to the maker’s website
