The point I am trying to make is that I would prefer not to have to charge up this system. I want for it to be able to charge itself and the only way to do this is by using the gasoline engine to help charge it up!
You could put a propeller on the nose and use it to generate current. That would be even less efficient than burning the gas directly.
