O.S. or K&B 20-25 size ducted fan engines
Can anyone help me find these engines? I need them for a ducted fan project. I would really like to find 2 O.S. 25 (or 26?) ducted fan engines. Thanks for the help!

Check eBay. I bought an OS .25DF a couple of years ago for around $100, NIB. You might have trouble finding the header, though. Tower Hobbies is not stocking them any more. Try the OS website.

Hi DR1Driver, Do you know how old exactly the royal citation is? I have been around the hobby for about 15 years, but dont really remember ever seeing the citation, until I bought one. Thanks

Royal went out of business AT LEAST 15 years ago. They may have stopped production on certain kits before then. Royal made "builder's" kits. Lots of balsa and ply pieces to be glued together and sanded to shape. The scale outlines tended to be pretty accurate, and the kits were gems when carefully assembled and covered/painted.
