Any help you can send my way would be most appreciated.
I had one in a Showtime 90, but I crashed it, so I will be putting my CRRC on a Funtana 125 when it freakin comes in stock.

Thanks for the quick comeback 3D. Would you say the Showtime was the same as the Funtana 90? Size wise, etc.? I see you are from Antioch. Heading up there in October. Hoping to fly at Middle Point RC in the boro. I lived in Lebanon for 30 years. Miss it!

Oh reeeeeeeeeeeally?! Well come on up! I fly at 2 fields. Cane Ridge in Nashville-ish for when I don't feel like driving and Middle Point when I want to hang out all day. Have you ever flown at Middle point before? We'd be glad to have ya.

Now, as for the Showtime and the Funtana, size-wize, they're pretty similar, but the 'tana has more wing area, so it's better suited to carry the weight of a gasser. I've never owned a 'tana before, so I'm looking forward to seeing how it flies with the CRRC.

BTW, I made it on the club website. LOL www.mprcf.com

I use to belong to MTRCS back in the 80's and early 90's. Then got into motorcycles and well, can't feed two hobbies at once. I have never been to the Middle Point field, but did contact the Pres' and have been on that site a few times. I remember seeing that photo of you and your plane. Bummer!!!!
Well, think I will try the 26 in the tanna. It also has a longer tail movement. I am hoping to have a Bucker Jungman ready to bring with me. Have a 26cc going in it as well. This was an old Carl Goldberg kit. Have two months to finish it. I must get busy! Will post how the 26 does in the funtana when I finish it up. Too bad they don't make this arf anymore.

Later,

Joe

FYI, I have heard of a few people having hard starting and performance issues with the CRRC 26cc gasser, What I have found is that some of the carburators managed to escape a simple but necessary machineing process, the repair is simple

I happen to have a Harrier 90 and a CRRC 26 and was also thinking that might be a good pair. Sure would like to hear from someone else who has tried that before I spend the time with it....

I think someone on RCU did one. Check the Seagull Harrier thread over there.

Yes, the G-26 muffler will fit a GF26-I.

Any muffler that will fit the Zenoah 26 will fit the CRRC 26...seeing as how the jug is exactly the same except in quality.

A "GF26-I" IS a CRRC 26 ! And YES the mufflers are interchangable
