Dee David asked- >Does anyone have any clue of electric airplane motor for 33-60 HP being sold
There are some out there and they are very interesting... but not cheap. My understanding is that you'll be looking at about $10,000 for the motor and controller without the batteries. The motors themselves are quite small, constant torque like most electric motors of this type, so the throttle response is probably quite impressive. Check out emrax.com for motors, and DTI (Drivetrain Innovation) for controllers. The Emrax 188, their smallest, is listed on their website as 52kW max (about 70 HP) and the air-cooled version weighs 7 kg (under 16 lbs).
