Default MOJO question...

What's going on with the Mojo kit? The last time I look BillyHell RC was selling the kit but now most/all of the links on his website are dead. I Googled the kit and found a page called "SwanysHouse.com" that is selling several Mojo kits. Are these the same kits? If not, what's the difference? What happend to the "Billy Hell" site?

Paul Swanson (swanyshouse.com) designed the Mojo. He sells the kits from his site. At one time Billy Hell sold his kits and an arf. Looking at Billy's site now it looks like he is hooking up with extreme flight.

Paul Swanson from Swanyshouse is a great guy. I fly with him here locally in Memphis. His kits are well known in the Profile BrotherHood arena. I have built several and they are easy to build and great to fly. Drop him a message through his site. He will get right back to you. Also there are several build threads on the the******************.com site.

Looks like they do not want anyone refering to other sites. Try this link to the build thread or do a search.

I put the name of that website in my avatar and had my image-upload/avatar privileges revoked as a result.

Talk about paranoid about competition in the web-forum market!

So, as a result there have been numerous occasions when I've been willing but unable to help other RCU users by uploading pictures of things. RCU's loss, not mine.

Wait a minute, are you saying RCU is putting the "* * * *" in the above posts? Are their computers/software programmed to do that? Wow, that is terrible if so... Must be some bad blood there somewhere... <;-0 Maybe an administrator will jump in and enlighten us. Can you spell it with an "X" in there so that it is still readable but not detected by the RCU police?

Hey Bob... I licensed Jim T. Grahm to sell the Mojo ARF. I always maintained the kit part of the business... He has since sold out of Mojo ARF's and is working full time for another web based RC special interest group....

Anyway.. I still sell the kits on my site www.swanyshouse.com/mojo/mojo.aspx.

Thanks for the Mojo info, I plan on ordering a .60 size here in the next week or two but have to get the work bench cleared of a couple of other small projects... I've been reading about the Mojo for sometime now; all good reviews.
Is there any consensus on engine size, make, two or four cycle? You guys have been flying them long enough to recommend the "perfect" engine, prop, servos, etc.

Thanks again,
Bob

Bob,

Order the kit now, and clean the bench while you're waiting for the UPS truck to show up. <GGG>

The Mojo is a great bird, and the kits are A-OK!!! Fun build, and you get the lightest, strongest plane on the block as a bonus.

Mojo = Good Choice!

Seems that most of my Mojo 60 customers have reported that the Saito 100 is the ideal power choice. Plenty of power, light and perfect for balancing. If memory serves, the 15x6 is the prop of choice with that motor.

On servo's, most guys are going for high torque setups. 90 oz. minimum with more on rudder.

I've tried a few different props on the Saito 100 in my Mojo 60 and I've settled on the 15x4W APC. But then again, I'm only running 10% nitro.

Never the less -- it's ballistic and I'm never left wanting more power or more vertical!

Get a mojo. I would rather fly than build, but it's worth every minute once in the air. I'm running a saito 100 with a 16X4 APC with 10% on my mojo 60...works like a charm. I wouldn't trade that plane for anything! Swany, I just can't say enough nice things about this plane!

Hiya Paul,

I'm new to profile planes, but I think I might be hooked. I'm Planning on building a Mojo or two real soon. Waiting for the Mojo 30, any ideas when she'll be ready?

Thanks,

Dave

I'm working on the Mojo 30 now... Hope to have the prototype finished very soon.. The first one will be electric and the next one will be glow.
