I bought a ARF at a local swap meet this morning. The seller didn't know much about it. I think it is a World models Tai Ji 40. It is complete except for the fuel tank, manual, stickers, tail wheel and aileron control rods. I gave 75 bucks for it.
I have a OS 46 FX With a mac mufler I plan to put up front. The motor mount is set up for inverted, but I want to change to side mounted. Also I have JR sport ST47BB servos that are new.
So my questions are, will this engine be ok, where can I use these servos, what are the minimum servos elsewhere, what tank do I need, What did this ARF retail for?
Any other insights would be appreciated. Also I'm not looking for killer performance, decent is just fine right now.
Well it looks like te only question you did not get answered was, what tank is needed. Go for a minimum 8 oz to a max 12 oz that fits in the fuse with enough room for some foam padding. Most local hobby shops don't mind if you bring the plane in and test fit a few parts. They prefer this to getting multiple returns for non-fitting parts.
