Hey Vicman:
If you are refering to the Kangke "red bullet" on my rack, it tracks & flies like like a pattern ship. In the nose is a OS 32SX with an 8 x 8 prop. Clocked at over 165 mph.
It comes in "HOT" for landing!

RE: Speed Freaks Wanted
Thats what I swiped the MVVS .28 from to put in my Miss LA. The owner of the plane gave me a MVVS .49 rear exhaust to shoehorn back into it[:@]. Hence the hairy eyebal. I may need to find another ship that needs an emergency motor. For some reason he kept the carb thinking that would prevent me from using it in something else
I always thought the thing was a little heavy vs size myself. How about you?

Whoa Krysten, that baby looks fast, bet it'll top 10 m.p.h. after the brushless mod.!
I had one of those awhile back...I had a speed 280 in it at first, then a 300...but it bounced off (into ) the basketball backboards a few too many times and I retired it...

RE: Speed Freaks Wanted
or maybe we should ask if shes HAD any thing or will be GETING something faster ?
imma guess that maybe the ifo was bought just as a toy and after 10 minutes she realized that rc planes are a damn funny hobby

RE: Speed Freaks Wanted
I like planes that go fast. With the brushless, the IFO should haul!! I'm already seeing 80+ MPH (distance over time) on the IFO with stock motor. I imagine that with brushless I should go over 100+.

about a year ago I confessed my need for speed (post #43) and I was not
assigned a number........ Was that because I also fly blowtorches?[sm=punching.gif]

RE: Speed Freaks Wanted
Yo Vic, the 'Stang flew for the first time today. Couldn't have been easier. A couple clicks of trim here and there and all is well. Absolutely no surprises. I won't bore everyone by posting pictures of yet another WM .45 size P-51 Miss America. For those who haven't been following my saga, I ended up using a K&B .61 Twister. It'll be interesting to see what it does after the engine is broken in so I can lean it out a bit and I put on a more agressive prop. Should I ask for some kind of number?

My first speed plane was a Scat Cat and yes it did have a working rudder. Followed by a Dominator and .46FX piped. Next was a V-Vector and MVVS Q-40.
My first Whiplash was shot down hand it hit so hard the cylinder was torn from the crankcase! Whip #2 lead a hard life and was retired. Whip #3 went AWOL and has not yet been found. Whip #4 is the Purple with yellow flames Jett FIRE .50 Whip #5 is in the paint shop and I will post photos when she arrives. She may be seen at Toledo. The Laser Arrow with a YS 45 FIRE was sold, Arrow was too thick to go fast.
FI_Flashaman:
The Magnum hauls butt with the sport Jett 50, it needed tail wieght, and it could use a pipe for another 750RPM. My buddy had one with the Weston UK 50. And I think his was a tad faster than mine in current form. He thinks not. But we never got the chance to find out. When flying my plane does not seem to be as fast to me as it actually is.
