Random reply to a very old thread, but does anyone have one of these for sale?

I’m trying to collect all of the Midwest kits and this one (along with a couple of others) is eluding me.

One of the only things I’ve had done here is to have my European Jeti certified for use in the US. However, I haven’t actually used it here (yet)!

What has been happening in the last 18 months?

I have been away from the hobby for 18 months or so. It is going to be a while before I can get back into it, but I recently perused the forum to see what's been going on, and it doesn't seem like an...

I'm a little out of date but this never used to be the case with Xicoy ECUs. The V10 ECU stored 52 minutes of data that could be downloaded to a PC with the appropriate cable and software; it may...

I might be wrong but I believe what is referred to as the V2 and V3 is actually the same version. If so, and the struts haven’t changed, then they are perfect for hard surfaces and workable for very...

I think the BVM Electra could be ideal but it is very expensive and the turbine version doesn’t appear to be produced any more (although a conversion would probably be quite easy).

That may be true but it’s a bit hard to swallow when it is significantly cheaper to get my German car serviced than my turbine.

Have you looked at the servo monitor on the TX (or with a servo plugged into the throttle RX output) whilst moving the throttle and throttle trim?

Is the trim responding correctly?

I’m not sure the X45 install will be ‘way lighter’. The engine is exactly the same weight as the P20 so it is only the ancillaries that are lighter. The P20 pump, ECU and valve block are heavier than...

Bob,

Could you give us the dimensions of the pipe you’re using for the X45 (particularly the length), in case anyone else wants to go that route?
