Cessna: Bush flying Mods!The old Cessna was beginning to get a little boring so i decided to "soup her up a bit!", I started out by changing the landing gear configuration from a tricycle setup to a taildragger, thus saving weight and reducing stall speed. I continued by changing out the motor for something more "beefy" then i set about adding flaps. they should allow me to slooow things down a bit. i then added a larger rudder and elevator (for better control at slow speed) aswell as adding some LE extensions and VG's (Vortex Generators) to keep the tips from stalling out at low speeds and to keep the ailerons effective. next up I'll add some tundra tires and a larger 9" prop to go with the beefier motor. Happy Flying K |
