I think a Carden/Horizon 85cc Extra 260/300 ARF would be awesome!

Mike,

On the prototype plane what motor did you run? Did you use the MTW canister setup on it and if so, did you use a zero drop flex or non flex header pipe...??


Thanks, Scott

The prototypes both used the DA-50 with a Pitts muffler. David Payne has one that is the first with the canister in it. Dont remember what header drop he had though.

I believe the spinner is 4". Its a round cowl so there is some room for different spinner sizes.

It can be built with a rudder servo under the canopy with pull/pull or in the tail. It comes with everything for either set-up. The Yak in the pic has the rudder servo in the tail, but with a DA-50 in the nose, its recommended that the pull/pull is used or nose weight will be needed.
The tail mounted servo is good for engines heavier than the DA-50.

I would think that Toledo would be a no-brainer..

Does anyone have an extra $700 that I could have? My wife WILL shoot me if I get another plane. I don't have too many the way it is, but she sure doesn't think that I need another..
