I would like to buy the two of them.
Can you recall the price when they were still available at Tower Hobbies? Then we can go from there.
Would you please poste a few pictures of each one. Hope I'm not asking too much.
Thank you very much.
Best regards
Rudy

have no idea Rudy. Would 10 bucks a piece be fair? Plus shipping?

I have a cowl witch has bin cut out for clearance for a cylinder head on the under side of a previous installed gas engine. I can let it go as soon I'm able to get a dummy engine witch than I would install to the new cowl I got from Tower Hobby back in 2015 when they were still available. I can't post any pictures yet because I have less than 10 posts on RC Universe.

. So will probably drop an OS FS 120 or FS 110 in it and call it a day.

Nice bird. Yeah I think power wise, an OS FS-120 or Saito FA-125 are by far the best power combo. To me the Saito 150 balances out perfect with a 6v NIMH in the firewall battery box and gives you an engine that can run a scale size prop. I am running an 18x6 prop on mine now and it looks way better.

Well ended up damaging my Hangar 9 P-51 150. It is fixable but found another new in the box. So removed my Saito FA-150 and will put in that new P-51. Good news it I have a Saito FA-170R3 that has been sitting for a while.
The Saito FA-170R3 balances spot on!!!! Will probably extend out a little to add a cowl. If I do that the glow battery should balance it back out. Now just need to fly the thing again 😊. This thing at half throttle runs for 20 minutes with 3/4 tank left, 3/4 throttle a little over half tank and 16 minutes to dry with full throttle! Love it!!!!
