world model midget mustang pics
i was going through my pics and i came across these. these were taken two years ago. we spent most of the day racing these in close quarters. the yellow and red one has a os91fx. yellow and blue has a jett 90, and the all yellow has a ys120 stuffed in it. the fastest one by far had the jett engine, and was ran at 3/4 throttle so the other two could keep up. thought these were cool pics and i would share. enjoy.
corrrection on the all yellow one. It only had a ys91 in it.

RE: midget mustang pics
just for clarity, those are world models MMs ?
I wish I could get more folks in my area to have some fun like that
Looks like the jett muffler install was not a big issue.

RE: midget mustang pics
the muffler on the jett engine required an extention. I was on vacation at my brothers house and brought the engine with me to install in the midget. since it was a last minute install we bought a os91 extension and modified it to fit the jett. Also note the wire landing gear where moved from the wings to just in front of the wing. this made landing on grass a breeze.

I love my Midget Mustang but the landing gear is the weakest part of this plane. I like what you've done with yours. Is that a one piece aluminum gear?

I rebuilt mine about 2 years ago and installed basic aluminum gear. Its mounted to the front of the wing. Had to cut some of it out and install hard wood for the gear to attach too. BTW, that is an OS 1.08 "stuffed" in the front end

RE: world model midget mustang pics
It's good to see an engine like the 1.08 FSR in plane like this... what sort of rpm are you getting with that engine.. I'm curious because I read every thread I come across about this engine
I'm still trying to figure out what to do with the one I have sitting around.....

RE: world model midget mustang pics
Thanks, You may be following the Phoenix F-20 here too. Its darn bnear a clone of the DC unlike the Cermark. The Phoenix looks real good and construction looks good too. My issue though is too much wing which I will take care of. But the plane is new and we're all trying to figure it out but it looks promising
