Thanks Rob
I guess not a lot of people recognize the value here. What engine do you have in yours?

No takers yet. This is a great project for the winter.

Dennis I've got an MT 42 from Paragon RC in mine. My machine is pretty heavily detailed...flaps, choke servo, upholstered interior, nav lights, retractable landing lights...etc, so it's weight and wing loading are up there. Im at 27 lbs and pulls it around very scale like.

Dennis_M · 09-26-2010, 08:17 AM

Rob what a beautiful plane you have there. Although mine
is not covered as of yet, I have the same detailing and expect
to have the same weight. I was going to put a DL-50 in in it because
it is actually lighter than a G38 for example.

I dont know if I'd go with the 50, the 42 is really tightly cowled. Some of the guys have US41's in theirs. We have a really good build thread on rcgroups that you can check out and see what everybody else thinks, lots of good tips and tricks in there as well.
Cant believe nobody's biting yet....

The RC Scalebuilder is really good.

For those interested in the Stinson, here is another build thread
on RC Universe:

For those builders looking for a good winter project to complete, this
aircraft is available at a fraction of the cost from starting fresh.
