RE: Nitroplane Cessna Citation 2 x P20s
In my opinion I will never buy anything from Nitroplanes after my one experience. Junk Chinese sub standard stuff from the glue, wood to electronics to the worst customer service you will ever receive. Sure the website looks so good but you get what you pay for and you ain't paying for much more than kindling wood or foam to make your mix of napalm. I buy usa only stuff and have great service out of it all.

RE: Picked up a few planes need id on one
Thanks Jollidude... I am pretty sure I can clean that cowl up with some sanding and paint and make it look super nice. As for the struts I am sure I can make up a set that will work.. I will look around for that kit though for sure.. Thanks

RE: Picked up a few planes need id on one
I agree and yes you are correct it is a foam type cowl deal but does have fiberglass on the outside. So i think I can get all that foam out and possibly still use the cowl. Possibly might need to glue a little more balsa around the edge of the firewall to get it to work but will see. Working on getting this Cub going first. Thanks guys.

RE: Picked up a few planes need id on one
Yup.. it was a kit i believe i can see the number and such on the parts inside the thing. So I don't think it was a scratch build.. Ah well.. I would bet its gotta be at least 20 plus years old maybe more.

Picked up a few planes need id on one
I was told the plane was called a Sistane. At least that's how this guy spelled it. Its the size of a 1/6 cub and high wing. Almost citabra and cub looking. I did an internet search but could not come up with anything. Anyone have any ideas? jc

Help on Force one 46FX
Ok I have a Force one delta with a 46 FX pusher. Today it flew for the first time. (engine is broken in) Its using a 10x7 wood prop. The thing didnt move at all! Radar at a pewny 60mph. It seemed it didnt want to fly. Anyhow the tach showed 12450. Whats up? This was bought used never flown. I was thinking of trying a 9x8. Any ideas. Oh yes stock muffler. I would think this plane with that motor and airfoil should do 100mph.

RE: Carl <span class=
Guys I could use some help. I was told this cub I bought was a Goldberg kit. Also was told not to fly it with the wing struts sounds bs to me but they said if you land hard you could put them through the wing. I am weary about flying it without the struts. I emailed goldberg for a manual the people want 10 bucks for one what a joke. No way am i paying money for manuals. Hell great planes and others has them downloadable on there web sites. What the opinion on the struts?
