I purchased a Milwaukee M12 cordless drill when I started building the 750. I am through the wings, tail and most of the fuselage. This is the best tool purchase I have made. Plenty of torque and speed, batteries charge quicker that I can wear one down. Light weight and the best part - no air hose to trip over, and knock things over. I have no interest in Milwaukee, just found a great tool and thought I would pass it on.

I use a Dewalt XRP, 2600 RPM, torque control. Rocks!!! The previous was a Black & Decker and exploded in my hand including a nice engine fire.. LOL.

I'm still partial to air drills/tools myself, use mostly Ingersol Rands.  Light as a feather, small and powerful...air hose don't bother me, just use to it I guess, but I've been using them for years!  :D  Glad you found something you like, a good tool makes life a lot easier!
