Bob this the Setup that you talking?


see this setup

I'm not a good picture taker, but here's my Bobcat. I've been flying the crap out of this plane so much that the cheap blue plastic
film on the top wing has pealed off in little small sections. Great flying plane. Everyone comments at the field how well it flares and lands.
Out of a dive, its got to be doing at least 125 easy.

MY SETUP:
YS 61-AR engine w/10x8 APC Macs pipe.
4 -3421 JR in empenage, 2 - JR 4131 in wing, 2 Futaba thro/steering
PPG clear coated
two tanks, 16oz & 8 oz Hayes
Bolt on wings ( interior 8-32 / blind nut 2" from LE)
old P&E functional struts from 1989 sitting around wait for a home.
Tetra wheels
6V 2000 mah NiH
8.5 lbs

I cut open the main gear support structure and reinforced the gear block and capped the cutout area with 1/8 ply.
Stripped off that ugly green anti glare and repainted it black. Looks much better, at least to me!
