Hi All,
During these days of being locked up, I thought about cleaning up the workshop, for the 3rd time in as many weeks but a box on top of many other box's caught my eye. Inside was a Stiletto 40 low wing 1520 span, made by VMAR, a fairly well made ARF kit by today's standard. So I made yet another mess in the workshop, just finished putting the final touches on it, range testing begins tomorrow. What I did find was on the box, it stated a 60 four stroke was suitable, yes!! I have one sitting in a box, no frigging way will it fit. Tried various other motors, too no avail, ended up putting a OS Max 46 FX in, very tight fit. I've used Hitec servos with a 2S lipo battery for power, a Orange R920X with Telemetry so I can monitor rx fades or holds.
