Default RE: De Havilland Dragon Rapide

Oldscale Guy,

I understand about the power. I have the Top Flite 310 with two OS 40AX's. At 21-pounds, it flies fine. On this I would probably use 4-strokes or maybe small gassers. The gassers might be better since they would be more reliable with what I assume will be an inverted installation.

How was the quality of the fiberglass parts and do the f'glass cowls also include the wheel pants/spats? If not, how are the pants constructed?

Thanks,

Bo
