I know a few folks who have had one on order for over 8 months and no luck getting one in so most people who have one have talked it out :)

you'll find that closer to 100-200 RPM increase and not worth the effort.

the Jett Stream muffler is already tuned and adding a long pipe gives you no benefit.

RE: THE NEW CERMARK F-16 BUILD IT BETTER, STRONGER, AND FASTER!!!

I'm fortunate i guess, my small field is 300'x1500' concrete, the bigger one is 900'x2000', i can't bring myself to fly off grass, and people who have only flown off grass curse our concrete saying...

depending on which paint scheme you're going with there are countless 1/8th scale turbine jets out there you can get decals for.

RE: THE NEW CERMARK F-16 BUILD IT BETTER, STRONGER, AND FASTER!!!

Up thrust would actually make the plane land easier for the novice as it would help hold the nose up and ballooning is caused by excessive air speed not up thrust, and just so you'll think I'm...

RE: THE NEW CERMARK F-16 BUILD IT BETTER, STRONGER, AND FASTER!!!

at or slightly in front of but never more then an inch or two, we're hauling 7-10 lbs of fuel and can't afford that much of a shift in CG as it burns off.

RE: THE NEW CERMARK F-16 BUILD IT BETTER, STRONGER, AND FASTER!!!

it's not just adding the 90 it's that the engine is mounted in the nose, that's allot of weight that far in front of the CG. my ducted fan F-16s easily balanced with minimal shifting of the...

RE: THE NEW CERMARK F-16 BUILD IT BETTER, STRONGER, AND FASTER!!!

you'd better stick with these 'Advanced' prop jets then, it's quiet common in turbines to add sometimes a pound. i prefer to move equipment but on both my Tam A-4s all the equipment was moved...

RE: THE NEW CERMARK F-16 BUILD IT BETTER, STRONGER, AND FASTER!!!

No i don't sorry but you stated this plane WON'T slow down and that is just simply not true. and if i come in too hot on an approach i simply side slip as well as pulling the nose up and she slows...

RE: THE NEW CERMARK F-16 BUILD IT BETTER, STRONGER, AND FASTER!!!

RE: THE NEW CERMARK F-16 BUILD IT BETTER, STRONGER, AND FASTER!!!

sounds like you're leaning out. blowing the plugs out of the hole is an indication the head is getting extremely hot.
