Default RE: ElectroStik Conversion to Glow

<p style="margin-bottom: 0in">You just might be right. I have been debating the .36 or .46 motor for some time now. I guess I need to give it some more thought. Anybody else have an opinion ????

I picked up a Maxford USA Gee Bee "Y" ARF kit. I plan on converting it to glow with a OS .15cv-a (pitts style muffler). After getting it home and making a bunch of measurements it appears doable with a bit of work.

Now onto this conversion. I first wanted to move the main landing gear back so I could convert it into a tri gear plane. (The last electric flight I ripped the tail wheel off taxiing it in grass).


Well I'm trying to upload the pics but RCu is not cooperating. Will try again in a little bit.</p>
