Looking at your engine photos, I will need engine stand-offs (posts) to be at least 8 inches long. My engine will be only a twin, not 6 like yours, so for the prop wash to reach the front of the cowl, my engine will need to be extended 8 inches or so from the firewall.

The photos that Tommy has shows a twin engine directly on the firewall, but looking at yours, that just won't work. The cowl is so long, that a twin mounted directly on the firewall just won't reach the front of the cowl...[sm=72_72.gif]

Mr DJ

PS. Thank you for your number, I will for sure use it the next time I travel your way...

I looked a bit more closely at your engine photos – your firewall has been modified (it is much smaller) to accept your 6 cylinder engine. I’m kool now, now knowing that I will simply slap my DA 170 right on the firewall as shown in Tommy’s photos…

When you make your wing modifications, send me a photo, please… I have some ideas of modifying parts of my bird, I’ll PM you on them.

Hi guys,

I've also just placed an order through Austars for one of these giant cessna's.

Getting excited in anticipation to receiving the model.

I've also ordered a custom colour scheme so I will be sure to post some pics when the aircraft arrives.

Cheers, Steve

thats insane!.....I like it! will there be optional floats for this model?? Bill in Sydney, hell have one....it might get a 210cc in front though.

bignuts181

DJ I think you'll find there is a timber engine box onfront of the firewall to stand the motor further forward. This is also how it's done on the 3 meter version, works a treat and gives you a place for your servos and flight packs too!!

Mr DJ

Thanks for that info, Big...

Now check the progress on my Baaaaby

I was thinkin' about the DC plane also, but naaaah

Hi DJ,

Have you any new photos of your baby now with paint?

I am interested to see what colour scheme you have chosen.

I believe mine is not far off the painting stage also.

Cheers,

Steve

Mr DJ

Hey, Steve

I just emailed Tommy. Hope to have update within 24 hours...

I wanna see them too

Mr DJ

Hey Guys,

I just received my confirmation that my Biela 29x10 3 bladed scale Propeller is on its way to me. This is the same propeller that Johnny is using on his Cessna.

Looking forward to fitting this to the DA150 that is going into my TMMY 35% Cessna.

I should also be seeing some more photos of my baby, hopefully now with some paint on it.

I'll post for you other guys once i have them.

Cheers,

Steve
