RE: Top Flite B-25 ARF (Tecnical, tips, suggestions)
If your using robart retracts with robostruts and land on grass you might have 14" prop tips dig in on anything but soft touch downs Depending.
My B-25 is about 3 years old now and I'm thinking of a partial rebuild getting new nacels and converting to 4 stroke gas. I currently have satio 72s and while they are sufficient, if the grass gets a little tall it take every inch of the runway to get her up. I'd like to go with the satio FG 14B gas which will give me a little more power. Is any one using the new electric robarts ? Is robart making a elec replacement for the B-25 ? I've never been a fan of air retracts as they are not very realistic motion and are pone to problems. I've tried electric retracts on some of my smaller planes and love them. What I want is a converion kit, not a total replacement. anyone seen this for the B-25 retracts?
