Building a NEW Skyraider Mach II
Lost my other Skyraider due to a crystal failure, it flipped and spiraled right down into a tree with thorns and broke it in 3 peices.[
]
Now..this plane was sooo much fun to fly I bought another and the covering is much nicer than the old yellow and blue scheme.
All I have to do is install the radio gear and control horns and im ready to fly!
At 70.00..you feel at ease flying this one!

RE: Building a NEW Skyraider Mach II
Just got her done!
This airplane balanced out with no weight added my other Skyraider took 2 oz. in the nose,wheel collars are steel with set screws
insted of plastic.
This is the only 2 differences in planes.

What engine do you use?
I just finished mine as well, but right now my evolution 46 is being repaired.
Would the evolution be a good engine for this one? From what I can tell, it will not fit with the supplied engine mount.

RE: Building a NEW Skyraider Mach II
I just checked the dimensions, and the GMS is 35.7mm wide while the Evolution is 36mm, so it should fit too.
How's the performance with the GMS 47?
Thanx,
