I am sure that this would not add that much weight and if the hub-motor is
selected corectly, the original tyre used, one could not distinguish it form
original.
Now, I wander if this could be installed on a certified aicraft with some
field approval as a minor modification...


The largest one is 500W, a little less than 1Hp. (Is that right?) Just
barely enough power to push a light aircraft out of the hanger? Now how
much does it weigh (along with the 500W voltage converter to go from 12
to 36V)?
