RE: GP Waco?
Just finished my WACO. Powered by a Saito 125 (fits entirely inside the cowl), Master Airscrew 15-8 K-series, Futaba 2.4ghz RX, Hitec HS-485HB (Karbonite) servos all around. I'm trying an 1800maHLiFE battery on this one. I used the stock muffler with a Saito 90deg adapter, which, by the way, is a P.O.S. Get the 90deg adapter from Turboheader Mufflers. The Saito adapter sheared in half as I applied modest torque when installing it...it appears to be made of potmetal. The ARF was assembled according to the manual with the exception of Mike Buzzeo's suggestion to JB Weld the nutson all of the upper wing attachment points. That will be a realtime saver at the field. Couldn't figure outthe ARF's registration: G-601Y...a 'G' registration is from the UK, but thesubsequent characters should all be letters.(?) I went with an actual registration of a WACOin the UK, a1940 Waco UPF-7, C/N 5400. Trivial, I know. Topped off with a kit-bashed Dragon Figures pilot wearing some vintage RAF flying gear...with Oakleys. It's very sunny here in FL, but the wind has been roaring for two days. Maiden Friday or Saturday...
