The electrician arrived Sat. morning and we got to work. I had run the conduit and cable into the house panel and the sub panel the day before. That took a few hours. Then it was decided to drill a larger hole through the brick and put a piece of conduit in it. We got a masonry hole drill and in a few minutes there was a hole. After running out of wire we made a trip to Home Depot for wire and fittings. Their machines wouldn't take credit cards which really bogged things down but we were able to find a check in the truck and got the stuff. I now have power in the shed but no lights yet. I got some insulation today and installed that in the work shop area walls. Now it's ready for sheet rocking.
I finished the electric plane and it's ready for a test flight. All up weight is 55.5 ounces including one ounce of tip weight. The battery weighs 9 ounces so the comparable weight of a gas plane would be 47 ounces about. Not bad for a Chinese built plane. The wind has been high all day now that I have the time to fly it.
