Note as much damage as that lose belt whipping around inside that cowl tearing everything up

the engine with no load........could cause some damage

The belt is for the prop? I thought it ran the generator

Is this personal experiences with gear reduction, or are you busting balls?
I was always interested in these, and would like to know if this is realworld experience, or tales from the crypt?

After some extensive re-engineering, It can be used similar to the way TF engineered their original to work as a simple hatch. I re-did mine.

An ARC might be forthcoming if enough people email TF for it...so if you want one in ARC, ask and maybe down the road it will happen. The finish on the ARF is ok if you're alright with covering and stuff, but personally I would strip it. If it were glassed and detailed after purchase it could look fantastic. The cowl is panel lined, but not the plane. You will be extremely pleased with it. I would have no regrets buying one.

Here's another engine option;It may be overkill but it fits.Its a Zenoha 62 with a Mick Reeves redrive.1:75 ratio .This will turn up to a 28-30'' 2 blade prop so a scale 3 blade prop would be possible maybe?Also is it too heavy at over 7lbs?...I plan on putting this into my GTM 1/3 Fokker D7 which I'm doing right now but I just wanted to check out how it fits in the T/F FW 190

Hi Steve. I converted the gear for a Laser200V and uses a Menz 24x12" 3blader,

Ramstein, do a paint tutorial please. The Zgerman paint schemes are the hardest in my book to replicate and I would love to see one done. I have done a 163 but I still have a 190, a 109 and a 335 yet to do
