RE: Need Basic Training!
So far so good. Thanks guys. I think i understand the brown thingies now! The Ace Puddlemaster was the smallest in the Ace Seamaster series - I also have the Seamaster 120 and the 40 size. They are all sea planes with the engine on a pod above the wing. The Puddlemaster was designed to be electric and the Goldberg 550 is one of the recomended motors so I'm sure it will work if I get it all installed & hooked up right. I'll put the info off of the kit box on here when I get home.
The Tigermoth was designed for .020 - .049 power. It's a light weight design - All stick as I recall, so keeping it light won't be a problem. There is no wing area or target weight on the drawing that I can remember. It was an old magazine plan I think & I don't have the construction article but it's pretty simple. As I recall it is a 24" wing span but I'll dig it out and look. I can whip out a couple of prop adapters on the lathe. Assuming that I do NOT use gearing, what size props should I use on these?
