RE: So what else can you do with a Cox .049 engine?
Hi there Ralph,great to see you're back in the hobby and better still going 1/2 A.I've recently built a Scorcher from the afore mentioned free plans site , and I must say I'm very happy with it.Cost me only a few bucks , and , a few evenings to build (recycled wheels , tank , and a few other bits }.Although designed in the 60's by Ken Willard as a 1/2 A racer , it does make a good sport model also . You could chage the aerofoil to a Clark Y if you were looking for something a little more docile . I've just about finished my next project , the Roaring 20, 020 powered, also a freebie from Dave Fitzke's free plan site. Come on start chopping balsa!
