You can do a fantastic electric motor glider, but nothing long range. Imagine if gasoline weighed about 100 lbs per gallon and you will understand the range issue.

 

 These "Nano-Phosphate" type cells will make a big dent in the weight of airplanes soon. As you can see, they put out a huge amount of power for their weight, so they will be perfect starting batteries for airplanes. This specific type of  battery has none of the safety issues that other high-power batteries have.

 

     If you are interested in a good technical discussion about this new high-power battery technologies, in comparision with other types of cells, here is a link:
