What fun, how many acres of storage space would you need how do you move the batteries from point A to point B (fork trucks ?),tesla batteries weigh 540 kg don't know size as they are built in. How many refills (changes)per day Sounds easy for engineering to solve,(I need a sarcasm symbol)
Or a 'normal' model aircraft for competition use. The F5B class uses up to ten Lipo cells with motors pulling hundreds of amps. They are really impressive in flight. See this video for an example of this multi-task competition where the first task is shown ( max number of legs of a 150m course in 200seconds. They had to introduce energy limiters (1750 Watt-minutes) in 2008 because batteries were exploding.
