Default RE: K&B Sportster Club

I decided to rebuild my first RC Plane.

It was a 25 size J-3 Cub ARF that I converted into a Super Cub.

The origanal was powered by a .28 Sportster as will this new one.

My goals are to build a more scale PA-18 around the .28 engine.

Here is the power system I'm going to design the plane around.

Master Airscrew 9x5 2-blade.......................$2.19
Dubro Flex Cable 20"................................$2.89
Spinner Adapter Kit...................................$4.49
Hayes 6oz tank.........................................$4.69
Turnergy onboard glow............................$11.56
Great Planes Aluminum Spinner 2"............$17.99
Hitec HS-225BB Mighty Mini Servo.............$17.99
Bission pitts muffler.................................$41.00
Perry Carb.............................................. $43.50
Iorn Bay Regulator...................................$43.95
K&B Sportster .28.....................................$79.99

Total $270.24

I think just this engine set up will cost more than the plane,engine, and ATTACK 4 radio system cost me in 1987
