As much as i love the Intro, i have purchased the new pro-Lynx retract set from Digitech which fitted very nicely to replace the Spring Air HD101 set i had.
On same occasion, thought of adding more power and possibly some smoke to my BI, therefore, i was looking into fitting a P-70 Kero start to replace the existing P-60.
I know that a few people have installed P-80's but has anyone tryed the P-70? What mods should be done accordingly and what about CG bearing in mind that nose retract is now located up front and retracts backwards.

Thanks for your help and photos if possible.
Regards.

I fly with a P70, which is in my opinion the best combo with a Boomer (can only talk about JtCat Though) We also have a Boomer with the P80 flying, but lots of butchering needed to fit that one

For the P70 no real changes are needed other than making sure it does not touch the bottom so you need to remove some material from the formers under the engine, not much just a little.

Cheers,

Mick.

Mick,

Thanks for the reply, I have also noticed that P-70 brackets do not fit in place, did you trim the wood or mount to have it fit. What about CG have you been able to cheive without adding weight in the nose?
Do you have any photo of your installation?

Thanks. Regards.
Dany

Looking for much better and stronger vertical performance, shorter take offs.... Although don't expect to increase level speed due to profile restrictions...
Hope this helps.

Regards.

I flew mine with a P-80 and then changed to a Bee. I could tell little difference except on fuel use. I think the added thrust of the P-80 is offset by it's higher weight. And the Bee has much faster throttle response. Bob

In reply to all those who asked about the new Boomerang kit, have you had a look at this?

New Boomerang Sprint ARF kit coming soon.

http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_7681560/tm.htm


Can anyone else see the link?

I feel a bit cheated as the Intro's were being sold on offer as part of a '1000 kits sold' promotion. If I had known that they were really being offloaded in readiness for a new model then I may have waited

Hi,
Just a quick question where do you guys locate the vent line from the fuel tank .Do you go straight out of the bottom of the fuselage and if so is there any chance of picking up
dirt into the fuel system during ground operations ( taxi or takeoff) particulaly on grass.
I also want to be able to have a startup tank connected for initial startup so I guess I will have to use a festo fitting .
Cheers Hawkflyer

Straight out the bottom for me. 230 flights and no clogged filters or junk in the tank. I think you'll be safe unless you let it drag the ground!

Mine goes out the side. I dont like the idea of a gear up landing and the vent tearing up the bottom of the fuse. plus its easy to hook up an overflow. But I have had to use on with my big-o Jet Tech 88Ozer.... 8.5 min flights (super bee) and landing with a good 1/4 tank left...
