I hacked out the old F-20....this is one of those....

...."Best Viewed from 10 Feet Away" planes.....

I gotta have a look at the Bobcat, and figure out if the YS .63 is gonna cut it.

I didn't want to search through 100 posts, so I'll just ask...

Razor, you bringing your Whiplash with Jett .50 power?? If so, I might just have to bring out my video camera

I was trying to get the Jett back into the Patriot (the firewall was loose) but I actually lost the engine mount (It was pretty heavily modified to fit in there...)

I have the Whip with my K&B-48/ Ultrathrust
Magnum/ West

I really want to get the patriot ready again although I know the jett on the Whip is more interesting probably...

EDIT: HEY! What do you recommend for the bottom of the magnum? I could glass it but I dunno how many Rabbit landings that would make..

At Hobby People (hobbypeople.net)

K & S Clear Plastic .030 9"x12"

The dry lake will wear it away (most notably at the nose of the airplane), but you could always super glue some more of the clear plastic underneath

Hmmm.. What is the problem? Looks pretty good---- Seems like having that thing in ONE piece after 12 flights is a total victory!

Maybe I'll glass over the covering- it'll come off but be stronger than the plastic...?

I may just end up putting a beach towel on the runway so I can land smoothly on that each time

Razor....I put the old Tower .75 back in the F-20, in case I need the new one
for the Bob-Cat project....should get started on the Bob-Cat tomorrow.

The old F-20 is kind of a thrasher now. []

Vic- If you are willing to hold it open and catch the airplane, that'd be the cleanest option.. maybe double-bag it just in case!

My Revvers line-up is 2/3 ready, just need to get the Jett-50 back in the Patriot for 3/3 (Now should I test fly these or save that for the Revver II?)

Weston Magnum, West-50/ 9x7 APC/ Hitec-MG servos/ Bubble-Jett 6 oz. tank

ACM Whiplash-X, K&B-48/ Ultra-Thrust/ 9x8 APC/ Hitec-645MG's
