Thats a BAD lookin Mamma a Jamma.
I'm going to do a War Bird NEXT winter.. hopefully a 101" Spit fire. (maybe) But for an ARF that sucker looks good. Usually the ARF warbird look slapped together... this one has that "REAL" feel to it. Keep up the pictures!

I picked one up a couple of weeks ago with a Saito 180 RTF, that had never been flown, but I couldn't see myself putting all that glow fuel on that sweet fuse. I'm looking for an Evolution 35 or a ZDZ40

Looking really good, I see you got yoursel an ignition for the motor. Looking forward to hearing what you think about the motor. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

yea i read a artical in one of the mags about someone who did it in electric. in the motor box was a speaker system for a motor sound. i think he was using 4 inch speakers on each side. it was supposed to be loud but, i would have to here it for myself. also it was something like 450.00 for each battery pack.

stuck on the retracts. one side works great, but the other side keeps braking the servo horn. they are the heavy duty ones from dubro. cant seem to figure it out. those jr 791 servos are some powerfull suckers.

Man that is some gooood lookin' plane. I'm really into giant scale aerobatics, but this plane has had my eye for some time now. Can't wait to hear how it flys. Is the 38cc to 40cc the biggest that it recommends. Could you put a 50cc in it do ya' think.
Anyway, great job. It should be a crowd pleaser. Shawn |
