Default RE: Nitro models pusher Bobcat?

Hi Dave, I know you do have experience with this size plane and the wren 44 turbine. I would really like to see this model in a 800 to 1000 sq' size for a 44. It sure is sharp and the price is right. We got a few coming in out here so we'll see!~)

Folks,
MY spin on "smaller" turbine (MW44) powered planes.
They get small real fast. My Reaction 44 (72% size R54) has a 56" W/S and 750 square inches of wing weighing 9 1/2 pounds dry. I'm CONSTANTLY moving the throttle up and down to keep it at a reasonable speed and visiblity. This 51" W/S at low to mid 600 squares will cook with even the 8# MW44. Keep it below 9 pounds dry and you'll have a ball! "If only it had retracts!"

More pictures Hal!
