Default RE: Kingcat-Like Design and Build
I forgot to mention, per my agreement with BVM I can't use the word "cat" in the name, but I like the suggestions so far. Keep'em coming!


Thing is, I can't get a "standard" engine such as an OS or SuperTiger in a reverse rotating shaft that I know of, which brings up the whole issue of pusher prop selection again

True that you can't get the OS or Super Tiger .60/.70 in a reverse rotating engine but Tower carries 3 blade pusher props for these engine sizes OR you can buy a Jett .60/.75 and throughly enjoy the airframe . All the engines are hand made. Also, on average, the Jett series turns 3,000-4,000 RPM above its same size OS or Supertiger counterpart. If you are a die-hard OS or SuperTiger fan just using the Jett muffler on these engines can increase the RPM by 1,000+.

This should be about the time Bob27 chimes in to tell you about the benefits of the Jett .
