Status: offline 		Has anyone done this? I have a fuji 50 on it now and it just doesnt have enough power. On my last flight I was lucky to find the firewall had broke loose on one side and im currently in the process of fixing/beafing it up. I would like to put a DA 50 on it since I have the fire wall out and can cut the everything to fit. I need to know if the plane will hold up and if im going to have to butcher my cowl.

Here's a link to the thread. I ripped out the firewall and did some serious beefing. Sold the plane after only a few flights. Justs didn't like the quality of it.

Most of the first 15 posts is me whining about the poor quality of construction. The good pics and description of how I modified the motorbox start on post #16
