The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

Larry,

My PDF reader displayed it upside down. To rotate the view hold SHIFT, and CTRL, then press + (-) to rotate.

Definitely different, and a flight report would be very interesting.

I did the rotate before I seen your post.  Blood kept running to my head while trying to read it.   LL~ LL~ It is unusual.  Looks like a speed plane. H^^

Per John e. Holliday

"Every body knows the speed of light.  What is the speed of dark?"

I am not sure but you could find out by measuring a burnt out LED.
