I enjoyed your posts, I was considering using O.S.52's, they're what I have in my VQ A-26 Invader.
That was before I watched the video on page 70 where Saito 82's were used. That immediately changed my mind, scale or not, I want what that guy had going!
So I'll extend the cowl's and add bigger tanks.
​​​ Either I somehow skipped where Kahloq flew his with O.S. 91's , or it never happened, there was one with Saito 72's that did well. I am sure that fs70's will work well also.
A friend of mine posted about his Mossie, with O.S 46fx's, it only flew twice, I saw one of those flights and it flew great.
Unfortunately someone stole his fuselage and center wing out his truck.
I definitely miss CMP, that's why I did my best to collect what I could of them over the last few years. They are some of best ARF's ever made.
I hope to have this first one completed asap
I can't wait to fly a Mossy!
