<p style="background:white" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">Hello All!</span></p><p style="background:white" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">This is my first post on RCU! I’ve beenfollowing this thread for the past week. I'm an ex-pattern pilot who has beenflying 3D exclusively for the past few years. As much as I love 3D, I've alwaysmissed that old-school way of flying. I think the Super Skybolt is my ticket toregain that happiness! I started researching the model after seeing an ARF kitin our LHS. It was a bit of a surprise because Great Planes are not readilyavailable around here as most shops stock Hanger 9 or less expensive Chinesebrands. This type of model is not that popular anymore, and therefore I'mnegotiating the best possible price. The fact is that I've ALWAYS loved theoriginal kit and I'm in the process of postponing my next Gas 3d project to dothe Skybolt.</span></p><p style="background:white" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">I hope anyone can help with some advice. I flyFutaba radios with JR high-end servos on my larger models. I would like to goall Futaba on the Skybolt for nostalgic reasons, but I don't know their servosanymore. I don't think digital would be necessary on this model and I’m notsure if coreless is really necessary either, although I would consider them. Iwould like more than enough from my servo’s though, as I do push the limitswhen I fly …constantly. The only servo's that grabbed my attention was the 3010's,9001's and the 92** range. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!</span></p><p style="background:white" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">The only motor I have available in this size (Largerthan a OS 61SF) is an OS 108 FSR with Bisson Pitts muffler. It’s my favourite2c motor of all time and I've had a few over the years. Has anyone used thissetup and have any reports, suggestions and/or pictures of the setup? I wouldbe most interested to run a 3 blade on the Skybolt for clearance and looks. AgainI’d appreciate suggestions. The weight of the 108 with pitts is a bit of aconcern to me…When I order the servos etc. from Tower, I'll add an extra cowl theorder in case in time I'd like to purchase and ad something like a Saito 125 orOS 110-120FS. I do agree about the sound…</span></p><p style="background:white" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
