Ken Bagdon writes in this month to show off his newly completed powered Thermic sailplane model. Ken writes, "About the time the article came out on the Thermic 50X in the September 2013 FM, I had completed the conversion of my own original Thermic model. Attached is an image of the model." Ken says he installed a 10-gram brushless outrunner motor spinning a 4.5x4.5 prop, 12-amp speed control and two micro servos. Ken's Thermic is motivated with a 2S 500 mAh LiPo battery for help in catching thermals.
