Default RE: 4th BVM Bobcat

Hi Pete,

I have just dragged up this old thread from last year, because I am interested in Balsa Bobcats. I am just about to finish one, nearly ready for clear. Mine is a std. Really nice work on yours. You certainly do have the "Killer Cockpit"

I see that you modified the wing, and fitted flaps in favour of the full span ailerons, which I have also done.. Other mods I have done is to make the centre wing and fuse one piece, and have fitted a gear door on the nose wheel.

Question for you, how effective are the flaps??.. I was planning to not use the main wheel strut air brakes hoping that the flaps and a bit of crow will be enough to slow it down.

Thanks

roger
