Default RE: Nitro models pusher Bobcat?

I finally opened mine this past week. Opened it on Tuesday, flew it on Saturday. It went to gether very quickly. I used a SkyShark 50 electric motor with their ESC and a 5 cell pack. Bent the landing gear forward 2 inches, set the CG at 9.75 inches and set the nose gear a little high to give it a positive angle for takeoff. She took off with no problems. Handled beautifully in the air, and the 50 is plenty of electric motor for this plane using a 12x8E prop. I am satisfied since this was my first glow to electric conversion and it went very smoothly. I did not use the stock setup, but put a 125MG servo in the horizontal and two smaller Hitecs in the booms for the rudders.
Not a bad plane for the money and it looks great in the air.
