My homemade Eppg

Because I love eletric things I decided change my old miniplane top80 gas motor into a eletric motor.
After 5 months of my own full homemade project finally I put this in the air.
Motor: 15070, 35kv, 30kW
Esc: 500A 24S(I know its big but this is what I have, what I get from a friend)
Batteries: 4x 6S 22000mAh 25C lipo
Wing: Powerplay Sting 140
Flight time: with new 125cm carbon prop, 35 minutes.

Weight: 27kg with batteries
Pilot weight: 65Kg
Total weight: 92Kg

Notes:
Im not sponsored by any brand, I just added the logos on videos because they help me a bit choosing the correct prop size for my motor.
Before reply any joke, this is not a professional eppg.
Im not a rich guy to get expensive stuff.
I do not intend any advertising, marketing sales with my posts.
I just love DIY and fly.

You are welcome to help me to improve this, I wil appreciate that.
Have a nice flights.

Great job! Happy for your project. I like the slow relaxing flight. You get a nice flight time out of the 22Ah batteries. :+1:

My first hand controller, 3d printed.
Using a simple servo controller.
Need to make a new one more smaller.

Very nice. The weight distribution/CG is probably better with how your batteries are set low and farther forward.
