@Denti - no, but "records" are set within categories: balloons, jets, gliders, props, helos, microloghts and paramotors, parachutes, etc. for various things: altitudes, un-refueled distances, endurance etc.

In just the same way that gliders don't have to compete against jets, electric-powered planes will almost certainly get their own category from the FAI (Fédération Aéronautique Internationale).
