I saw this thread, and even though it is old, was wondering if anyone was still flying their Skybolt ARFs?
Recently, I bought a half built ARF version that was on consignment at the local hobby shop, and was wondering what reinforcements/mods needed to be done to the air frame, or what others who have been flying this plane thought it needed over the 'stock' configuration.
For power I was considering the recommended OS 91 Surpass II, or the newer 95V. However, it appears with the OS 91 Surpass II, the plane is still tail heavy? If this is the case, then the OS FS-1.10a would seem to fit the bill perfectly.

Any comments or information would be helpful as I finish this beauty up!
