RE: Plastic Cessna ARF
Mine had an OS 91 in it and I Loved it. It fit a little snug and I never felt it was really over powered but then I liked to fly it about 1/2 power so I never really noticed. The 91 was great when the floats were on it and it was one super plane on floats. I still have my floats but I lost the plane a couple months ago, have NO idea what happened it just decided in a slow turn that it wanted to dive and it did and that's all she wrote. I really liked that plane and I will probably get another one, one of these days.
A couple things to watch for with the Cessna: Be carefull with your aerobatics, the wing joiner is only about 8' long and doesn't go into the wing as far as I think it should. I've folded 2 wings at that point because I played to hard, I never lost the plane but the wings buckeled at that point and then flexed back to where I could safely land. In fact one of the wings I continued to fly for touch and go's but I was really carefull with it.
The other thing is with the floats designed for the Model Fly planes: When installing the float mounts to the float you should open up the ' POST ' area bigger then the post and FILL it with glue so that it has something to grab onto. If you don't , all that holds the post is foam and it may not last. I dropped the front of a float while making an approach and ended up in the drink. When I got it back the post had pulled out, needless to say I pulled them all and fixed it right. I also suggest that you SCORE the post real good before putting them in.
You should have a ball with the Cessna or any Model fly plane. I've had them all and still have most and ENJOY them every time I take them out, some I've had for over 10 years. ENJOY !!! RED
