Default RE: Don Smith Cessna T-50

Be very careful with over powering the T-50. The tail is not held on with much. Also, fuel space is very very limited in the nacelles if built per the plans. I am running G-23s on mine, and it should be fine. An aquaintence had G-38s on his and it was wayyyy too fast. His tail also came off, built per the plans. The robart gear takes up a lot of room. I am running 10oz tanks and that is all you can get in there with foam packing. The plans leave alot to be desired, with some stuff just 'magically working out'. I hope to finish mine this winter.
