RE: Bud Nosen CITABRIA recomended Engines??

Dave,

It is an OS 90 2 stroke. I have the CG set at 3 3/4 back from the leading edge. The servos are positioned just behind the CG. Lots of room in there.

RE: Bud Nosen CITABRIA recomended Engines??

My Nosen Citabria is powered with an OS 90. I think it flies really nice with the 90. Mine comes in at 16 pounds.

RE: Ace RC 1/3 Scale Weeks Special (Pitts)

Last one. That last pic didn't focus as well as I would have liked. It looks like a smaller guage of wire was wrapped around the joints and soldered. It seems to be very sturdy.

I flew my Nosen Citabria for the first time last Sunday. It weighs 16 lbs and it flew great. Can't wait for the next time out.

Nice weight loss program! Good Luck.
