I am going to order the ARF Flite Streak for the BB 25 Fox.
I also have a an OS FP-15 that is setting in a box. (Never run)
Would that engine be hard to convert to C/L? I tried to find a venturi, etc. but had no luck. (Just a thought.)
The OSFP-15 parts are available from Tower. They used to sell the engine in CL version as the FP-S. They should still have parts. The FP-S has been replaced by the LA-S but the venturi parts will fit. You could set it up for remote needle if you so desire.
You also have the option of wiring the throttle open and run as is.
Awhile back someone posted that the OS 15 will pull the ARF Flite Streak. I THINK they were using 52' x .012 lines and using it for stunt. That combo wouldn't do much for you as a combat trainer though.
