I have ordered the little Bobcat. The Fed-Ex web site said it should be delivered tomorrow. I plan on putting a Wren 44 on it. I was wondering if there is enough room for a 32oz tank and if you can tell if it will be hard to adapt a turbine to it? It looks like I will have to cut into the back end to make it fit.

Thanks.

Hal

Bob, was not my intention to offend you. I really appreciated your kind offer. Still have your pm in my box just in case. ET may be my rejection to Bob was wrong, but as you said let me calm down a little. If I deal with Bob then I will buy it direct from him and not nitro.

Bob give me few days. I'm having training this weekend.

I guess FedEx Ground is what they use for most, and that they don't do PR, or don't do it for the same cost. Remember, again, I'd be pretty certain the S&H charges are a good portion of their profit.

At any rate, can't wait to see what the kits look like when they show up, let's see some pics.

I guess with the OS91(that's a LOT of power for this, I'd say!) you'll be using a Byron pipe?

Status: offline 		No E.T., no pipe, just stock muffler. It will be pusher. I'll see how it handles and if it is going to work with a small turbine. It looks almost as big to me as my BVM bobcats I have had in the past. You would have to modify the rear of the fus a bit for mounts and to clear the starter, but that is no big deal. Bob

Status: offline 		I just received mine today. This is unbelievable!! The quality is outstanding. It is a perfect match for the Wren 44. It has a very strong fiberglass fuselage. Nothing needs to be done to the wings. I spent about 15 minutes opening up the back for the turbine. All I need is a couple of blocks to mount it.

Retracts will take a little work in the wings but not much. I am not going to put retracts on it right now. I should have it ready to fly by Sunday. Three of the guys here have seen it and two of them have ordered one on the spot. They are going to put .61 glow engines on them. I have a Savex L-39 with a Wren 44. This blows it away! It is larger and much better looking. It looks like a 2/3 scale Bobcat.

These are really going to go fast.

That one is all wood....notice the rotating nosegear to lie flat? Interesting...
Does not capture the lines of the bobcat like the nitromodels one.

All it takes to put a 44 on it is two wooden blocks. You need to open the back end up a little with a dremel. It fits perfectly! I'll try to get some pictures today and post them.
