Just thought I'd share a little bit about my conversion of the 40 size ThunderTiger Giles-202 ARF.
I have an Astro 40 geared with a Superbox and plan on a 6S lipo pack but may need to go to 8S to get the watts up. I am spinning an APC 13.5 X 13.5 Pattern prop. we are discussing this power set up in the motor thread..
I flew this as a glow model a few years ago and lost radio contact on the maiden. Thus the new wing:)
I am alot farther along on it than the picture shows having mounter the motor and almost finished the wing...more picture to follow ;)
It had an RVC 60 in it and had more than enough power I just didn't like the slime everywhere.
I'll document my progress here as I'll have alot of question and hopefully be able to offer some useful observations..
