This is one cool project! Best of luck to you!

Nice find on those batteries and the new motor looks much more suitable. Looks to be rated for 23 KW for < 1 minute, should be fun

Hi Ben, great to hear from you mate! Yeah, at the price, those batteries are a total steal, most of them have only had tens of charge cycles, almost brand new.

Looking good.

Hi there, the individual tubes are about 1.2kg each, so if I can fit 32 tubes total, that will still be less than 40kg. The motor is around 18kg, so the total weight is still approximately the same as the old Engine + airbox + fuel. I am using the individual tubes at quite low maximum current (to maximize battery life), so there won't be any substantial temperature increase.

Heya Sir, I to was thinking about you. Was coming up your way end next week. Need to pick your brain on electroplating system for Gold and silver.
