Default RE: Phoenix Extra 330S 60-90 Size

So the work is done. The 1.20 is in!!! I took a few shots for comparison's sake between the .90 and 1.20. As you can see it needed a bit of firewall modification to fit the ax muffler. I have had good luck on my edge with the muffler so I didnt wanna throw down another $60-$70 on a pitts muffler that I didnt feel was needed.

Balancing this monster was a bit of an issue, I ended up with the 5 cell AA rx pack in the tail.... I mean..... if it was any farther back it would be in the rudder. I actually installed it with a bit of surgery. I opened up the bottom of the fuse between the tailwheel block and the elevator servos, and pushed in some foam and stuck her in. I capped it off by ca'ing the original piece back in and then covered it up with a scrap of blue I cut out from behind the canopy.

I ran a break in tank thru her in the yard this evening. The next chance I will be able to get to the field to try her out will be tuesday. So no maiden report till then!

Im just glad I got it in finally!!!
