Default RE: Byron A-4 Skyhawk EDF conversion

Hi guys,

Love the paint scheme on your A-4 Skyhawk!

It looks like I might be doing a similar GDF to EDF conversion on an old Byron A-4 so I was happy to find this thread. I plan to replace the stock GDF power plant with an E-Turbax, Neu motor, CC HV110 ESC, and FlightPower packs. I haven't decided yet on a 10s or 12s setup.

My A-4 has SpringAir retracts with the mock plastic struts. I think I saw a thread on the Jets forum where a guy replaced the SpringAir wire mains with some Robart struts so I may do that upgrade too.

More later as I get things going...

Regards.
