My scale was way off, the actual weight of my 90 size
Beaver is 11 1/2 lbs. I installed a Magnum 1.08 2 stroke
and flew it with a 13x6 prop. The Beaver flew well but
lacked adequate thrust because of the small prop. I now have
14 in and 15 in props and expect better results next time.
The wing struts did not fit properly, so I flew without
them. RichmondRC advises against this, so next time I
will make new screw locations on the wings, so the struts
will fit, and provide some wing support. It is good to
know that the 2 tube wing mounting system is strong enough
to support the wings.
I have yet to find any serious flaws with the Beaver. It
sure draws a lot of attention at the flying field.
