I was introduced to your site by Barry Clay. I find it complicated, to say the least |

Here's the Strutter. Not as scale as I would like, and the decals are yet to go on, but it has tremendous power from a coreless motor on 6 cells.

Here's a close up of the cowl, which I know is not scale(that was what I got in the kit), showing the engine cylinders. They are made of paper reinforced with CA. It is then spot glued on the shaft so that it will turn as did the original rotary. It causes no loss in power. I have the CAD file and will be glad to share it here if there is interest. | |

I probably will use a 600 maH 6 cell (NimH) are I have a bunch of them.
The coreless motor, even with that pack has tendencies of making the plane a 3D ! The prop also came from the site below. Helpful people there.

| *** Great combination FSG,the duration will be excellent with the Lithiam cells,just make sure that your ESC is a compatible unit for the Lipo's,but you have no doubt sorted that side.
Your flight test will be welcome here,that prop looks mighty efficent. Quote: |

I think it would be useful in promoting the site to get more members  | I used Google and typed in "1/144th scale model aircraft"
