Super Skybolt Cowl Question
Hello,
I'm getting a fiberglass cowl for this plane and they have 2 sizes avalable. The first is close in size to the stock plastic one the other is an extended version. I'm planning the Saito 125. They measure L 5 3/4 x W6 1/2 x H 5 3/4 for the stock version and 7 7/8 x 6 1/2 x 6 for the extended one. I'd like to know if I need the extra room of the larger cowl and what if any mounting problems I might have.
Thanks,
Rick

RE: Super Skybolt Cowl Question
I have a Magnum 120 in mine, mounted inverted. Awesome combo. A 125 will make it a real rocket ship. No then, I found no problem with length using this engine. I have quite a bit sticking out of the bottom, but it looks cool as heck. I'd stay with the standard length if it were me.
