RE: Ray Torres T-34C Turbo Mentor

Thanks Dave!

Not sure about power yet. I think I'm leaning towards an electric setup. Varioprop makes a nice scale three bladed prop that would look great on this plane. I can also go with a planetary geared system to give it that "turbine" wine. I'm still floating some ideas around. Ray's original T-34C had a Moki 1.8 in it. The head was canted down towards the ram scoop and the exhaust came out the left hand exhaust duct. V35BFLYER on the other RT T-34 thread is going with a Moki 2.10 in his.

here are some pics of Ray's setup.
