Your existing planes can usually be converted without too much problem. They will get a little more weight, so your wind penetration will be better, but landing speed may be hotter, depends on your flaps/crow setup. Added weight may men you might have to limit your g-loads in flight maneuvers. Anyhow, if you already have TD ships you like, motorizing them would IMO be your most economical yet high-performance way to go. One of the new outrunner brushless motors, some lipo packs and charger, will at a rough guess set you back about $300 for converting an unlimited size ship. 2-meter TD ships could be converted for somewhat less, though the charger and batteries will still cost about he same. So, maybe sell off part of the collection to pay for converting your favorites. Or sell the winch and pay for almost all of it;-) RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
