MTK. Could you post a list of pattern planes that the Syssa setup will work with. Planes that wouldn't require a major rekit. Obviously the Pentathon Evo would be the first on the list. The Focus II...What else? I understand their are a lot of planes.
Having just completed my new Aesthesis design which has quite possibly the fattest and deepest fuse around, the SAP hauls its 10 1/2 pound weight and significantly higher drag than typical, with super authority. This is a very large model by today's standards with about an 1140 sq inch wing.
Point is just about any pattern model designed for wet power can be adapted to the SAP with pipe, as long as there is adequate length to the pipe tunnel. The whole length of the pipe from the exhaust flange is about 34" so that will be the determining factor. If you have a balsa fuse, mods are simple. If composite, they are doable but more painful
