I have an OS-120 but it has reserved seating in a Hellcat I have waiting. The 26 is an engine I was considering but didn't know if it would be too small and make it fly like a sperm whale. I need to replace the cowl so you answered a future question about where I could get one. Thanks !!

Capt. Jim
You confirmed Mike's suggested engine size so I guess I was thinking just a tad too big. I also want to get the struts Robart makes just for this plane. The 6" flotation devices that are on it now look out of place , do you think 5" tires would be more scale looking ? Are these 6" tires what came with the kit ? To me everything about this thing is " BIG . would have loved to see 13 of these flying together at one time. Do you have any video of it ? Where is the recommended CG located at ?

Chad
Did your 35 fit inside without too much hacking on the cowl? And are all of you running stock or Pitt's muffler's ?

Joe
What can I say - Looking at your pictures makes me want to jump all over this thing. You have one nice looking plane !!! How far forward did you kick out your struts ? NICE field to fly from too.

Sorry to answer you all in one reply , to be honest I really didn't think I would get much response . You all have given me good information, I got my feet in the blocks . Still need to find that PT-26
canopy . Thanks for the help !!!!!
