Mine is in need of a recovering or maybe glassing. The monokote is cracking. It's going on 15 years.

The P-60 is ok but if you have a hot humid day on a short grass runway, things can get tricky. The extra weight of a larger engine and added nose weight is a small price to pay for getting the plane...

I initially had a P-60 in mine for a few years and it is definitely marginal. I now have a JC Rabbit(19 lbs) and it has brought the plane to life and makes it more enjoyable to fly. I would look at...

Looking good Carlos. Just my opinion but I would give the tubing on the Festo shutoff a little more free play.

You better stop flying it. It's only going to make it harder putting the P-60 back in it :-)

Sounds good Carlos. Looking forward to hear how you like the extra oomph! How long did you leave it at full throttle? I've noticed that with a new Xicoy ECU, it takes a while to get those last few...

I wouldn't worry about it either at this point. I know with the Xicoy ECU's it's suggested at least with JetCentral to initially bring the throttle up one click at a time on the stick and leave it...

Mine with the P-60 also was in the 19lb range as well. When I put in the Rabbit, I'm sure I weighed it but I don't remember. Did have to add more weight in the nose although I got a little break on...

Do you know how much it weighs now or what it weighed with the P-60?

The capacity is not the problem but the 5C or 9 amp is. That must be an old battery to be a 5C. I would charge it up and see if it will start the engine. It may be enough. Once it's running, the...

Looks like 90 degrees! I have whatever was called for. I used CA hinges but I like what you did. Maybe I need an airbrake.

1/2 throttle to the runway? I'm usually all the way out of the throttle coming out of the turn on final. Maybe it's that idle thrust. Even when I had a P-60 I would be at idle pretty far out.

As far as max thrust and idle thrust goes, I don't think that's a big problem. I just checked the weight on the 80 and it is heavy so getting it to balance the biggest issue. I guess you got a good...

Get back to us after you have a few flights with the K-80😃. See if you have a different opinion. The Reaction is like the Honey Badger. A little extra weight, a little extra idle thrust....the...

That's a cool story. I have given up even thinking of getting rid of my Reaction probably until the point I can't fly anymore. It is just the easiest everyday flier for a no stress day at the field....
