The Clunk

Mark wrote.
The best off the shelf connector between removable battery and
the glider I have seen is a male/female "electric lighter"

What I really learned was to mount the rather heavy plug to the battery, so
that it didn't have any way to move around and start clunking. This makes it
easy to plug in with just one hand, which is a problem in the Genesis. The
battery is located way back in the fuselage (for CG purposes) and one must rest
ones head on the top of the fuselage while trying to get both hands way back
inside to plug in, or un-plug the thing.
All this is done while standing with a leg on each side of the fuselage and
facing forward, head resting on fuselage, both hands inside, fishing, fiddling
and cursing.
So, now I have "No Clunk" and one hand "Plug-In", Life is GOOD.
