Default RE: Astro Hog Mods

Still looking for Astro Hog mods?

I decided to invert my engine and cowl it in. I shaped the cowl out of a block of balsa.

I think the tail feathers of the Hog look a bit dated, so I reshaped them, also! Actually, I borrowed a set of plans from the Sportster series, and scaled them to my Hog.

I've had it for over 15 years, and she still flies like a dream! I have an OS 60 in it, and she flies nice... no verticals, but do many full-scale planes???
