I can't remember what the plane the size of yours uses for power; the scratch-built one uses two RCV 90's turning 15-10 3-blade props. It weighs 23 pounds when filled with water. Good luck on your build, show lots of pics!
At this regard I was thinking about (2)
OS FS-70 Ultimate:
they seem small enough to fit inside the cowls and large enough to lift it. Moreover they have some -reliability enhancers- such as a fuel pump
and a slide-valve carburetor.
What do you think (Bernard)? Should I stick with 90s if I want to use 4-strokers?
Bernard: could you help me with the
fiberglass parts? Do you have any plug you can use to make them for me? If you don't have the time we could still find a solution. I will pay for them of course. That would save me a lot of time.
Same as above for the
windshield: yours looks awesome, is it aluminum or just painted silver? It's great!
Thank you!
