Since electric power has become very popular in C/L flying, I was wandering: Has anyone tried one for speed?
If so, what is the (electric) speed record?

It is FAI class: F2G. I havent checked if it is still "provisional", or has been made "official".
I'm aware of some Swiss attempts:

They didn't quite make it to F2A speeds.
Google found me mentions of F2G contests in Europe, during the coming summer.
