But what about recreational vehicles? I love to go offroading on my dirtbike, its a sport I dont wont give it up untill an alternative is available with matching performance. But heres one hobby that can be totally powered by electricity that I really enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMUjaLJEvhI

Currently I am putting together an R/C Extra 330 airplane like the one in the vid. Its a 40% size (thats 40% the size of the real thing!) and its going to be electric powered. Its more affordable than a total electric powered car thats for sure! The motor's on order and it costed me almost 4 grand!
