RE: Top Flite Cessna 182 build

It flies just great with the floats, handles like a trainer. Wind doesn't seem to bother it much either, but it has lots of power to compensate for the floats. I used the Sig 46" floats...they are...

RE: Top Flite Cessna 182 build

Looking good!!! Brings back memories of building mine. I used a 1.20 4-stroke in mine because of the big floats, it also has on-board glow just to make it a little more reliable on the water. I...

RE: Which Sachs is this?

The seller is located pretty far from me so that's not really an option. I was hoping someone would recognize the engine quickly, if I can't determine what it is I will pass on it.

RE: Which Sachs is this?

RE: Great Planes Seawind

RE: Top-Flite Cessna - Engine selection

I have a 1.20 in my Cessna, only the valve cover protrudes from the cowl. My Cessna is mostly for float flying so the 1.20 is not overkill if you ask me.

Looks great!! I've been flying mine for a couple years now and still haven't gotten bored of it. I put a carbon fibre gear on mine to give me more prop clearance...I'm running a 14" prop
