GP Tiger Moth
New toy for the hanger!
Just got it yesterday from local H.S. Was on concinment there. Complete withnew never run .91 Saito, 5 Futaba 3003 servo's, switch, glow plug extension. I added my battery and radio. The guy wanted $500.00 I got it for $375.00 :eek: He needed to sell it bad. Anyone got any good/bad feed back on this plane. I figure if I dont like it, the engine and servo's will fit real nice in my framed up TF Focke Wulf 190 :p Todd |

I seen one in action awhile back... Looks nice just sitting in the grass and even better flying. As for feedback i can't tell you much because I never spoke with the owner, but it looked great.

I have one. Looks great . Always draws a crowd. I started with a Saito .91 in mine and although that's what GP recommends it was simply not enough power to overcome the drag of the wings. I had to run it virtually wot. Any slight wind made it worse. Also the plane with the .91 was EXTREMELY tail heavy. I had to add 12 oz to the nose which didn't help things. So what to do? I swithed the .91 for an OS 1.20 with a 16 x 6 APC prop. That gave me the power I needed and I got useful instead of dead weight. She'll do beautiful loops, touch and goes and fly bys. Put a pilot with a little scarve and wave. Rolls are SLOW and painful. You can eat a sandwich before she'll roll. BUT she is a lot of fun on those days that you want to take a leisurely stroll and not get to crazy. Good luck
