3-31-07 - My first Wooden gasser plane!!!!!!
This is a 27% Goldberg Extra 330s ARF
In these pictures you'll notice that I put a Homelite 25cc weedeater engine in the plane
with the Magneto/coil ignition on it...... it flew the plane great, (about the first 50 or so flights)
but when I started getting into 3D maneuvers, I upgraded to a Poulan 46cc chainsaw engine with Electronic ignition...
(nothing was needed to rebalance the plane after the engine swap.... both engines weigh
approximately 3-3/4 lbs.......
