Dudes, been flying my AeroCat for a while. Went with a motor I had and it was pretty zippy. Talked with my buddy Scott and he told me "Dude, why in the world didn't you listen to me? The motor you need is the Just go fly 400. I think you'll see a pretty big difference!" Scott shipped over the new motor and told me what batterie/prop combo. I've just retro fitted with the hotness. Going to give it a try this week end. I can tell you the sound and feeling of this thing just holding it is AWESOME!!
I have some photos of putting it together,,a real no brianer. Will get some vids when I fly and let you know how it goes. Scott had his AeroCat in Illinois at the E-Fest. Even in an armory that big,it could only be flown at full juice for about a second,shut the power off and glide through the turn! This ain't your father's Oldsmobile! Flys like a cub with low power settings. Goes like stink with the left stick pegged! I can tell you this,you won't see too many AeroCats in a gym. Around 70 MPH and can handle real world outside conditions. You'll be suprised when you launch!! Scott is a great guy and has a super product. If blasting past your bud's foamie gets your blood pumping,you need one of these!!! Click the AeroCat banner ad if you'dlike to see Scott's web site. You can't go wrong with this plane. Fun-O-meter is pegged on ten! It's not a 3D machine, but like golf clubs,you need one of these rascals in your inventory!!!! Biffmeister |

Biff my friend, you will love the JGF 400DF motor in the AeroCat. Heck, you're having fun just revving it up in your hand! Think what it'll be like when it's actually in the air! It will seem like a different plane compared to what you were flying before.
We are offering the JGF 400DF on the Model Aero website, along with it's little brother, the 300DF. For those that like a lighter plane, the 300 offers great performance. But if you want to bring out the big guns (and who doesn't), you need the 400. Mr. Websters definition of "Third Dimension" is: "an aspect that heightens reality" So I guess the AeroCat is a 3D plane after all! Git 'r in the air, Biff! Scott www.ModelAero.com Scott

Here's a video of the AeroCat flown by YHB (young Jeff Heitman boy!). This one does not show the all out speed, but instead shows the excellent overall flying qualities of the bird.
