Default TroyBuilt 260?
I am trying to get my hands on an old troybuilt 260 kit. Does anybody out there have any parts remaining from that kit?

Contact Roman he has the smaller one's parts. Did you want the bigger TBM 260? That might be hard to get.

Wasn't there some issues with the bigger one blowing wings apart ? I recall that being one of the reasons why they stopped making them.

My buddy is still flying the the 42% troy built and his wings are the ones that Mike Caglia crashed at the 2002 TOC. His wings are strong. They stood up to a rolling harrier in to bushes at the TOC field.

I know that plane didnt have a turtle deck but if I cant get the turtle deck formers I think your foam deck would fit fine.

The 260 that I sell is the same plane except for the turtledeck which I changed to foam.
