Default Kangaroo Information

I bought a Kangaroo and need information where I can find out how to put on a glow engine on it. I can not afford a turbine right now so I'm going this route for now. I know it has been done before but I do not know where to go or who to ask. This is a new never been flown ( even painted ) with all the servos installed. Thanks for any help I can get. Please e-mail me.

Thanks Again
Doug Bailey

Doug, I am sure that you will find the performance of the Roo awful with any prop
setup. I think that is better to wait a little more and save to buy a turbine. There is a good turbine of the 12 lbs range that is sold very cheap, the FT-500 (a.k.a. ram500) from Frank tiano, for about 1995 dollars. The kangaroo will fly nicely with it. Of course it would be better if you spend 1K more and buy a P70 or a p80.

Rgds, Enrique

Do a serch with "kangaroo prop" as there is some info. I have seen one fly here in South Florida and it wasn't bad.

Contact Fiberclassic's, I think they make an adaptor for mounting a OS 91 or anything else you want.
I was going to stick one in the nose but I think I'll save my bucks and look for a good deal on a blower.

What's a good trouble free turbine for a Roo and a jet newbee?

Waiver? I don't need no stinkin waiver... I live in the desert.
