Does anyone have any experience with solar panels?

While sitting in math today (horribly boring), I was looking at my calculator. I saw the solar panel it has on it and it only has 6 screws in the back. That got me thinking. It cant be too hard to extract the panel now could it?

Well anyway, I want to start small. Maybe with my Micro-T charger and 6 or so panels rigged into it. If that works I will go bigger into something maybe for my 606i.

Does anyone think this is possible? I know if I dont have a lot of panels I probably wont get a lot of amps but I wont worry about that now. I just want to know if it is do-able.

Some may think its stupid but for those of us that dont have cars to use to plug our chargers into, its brilliant. Cheap, easy, and ultimately light weight.

I could be a new revolution of R/C gear...


Did you know?
