I see that Lit's C1 weighs in around 800 lbs. If the Elio comes in around the same seems that a fully electric version could work very well too, assuming that the 200 mile range of the C1 is true. If it is true anyone give a guess if the gain of not having gyros to power would counter the larger frontal area of the Elio? Anyone guess if the production cost would go up, down or stay the same?
