So the P-60 is 13 lbs of thrust (on a *good day*) and the K-85 is 18.74 lbs.

The JetsMunt 70 is 15.8 lbs - almost exactly halfway between the P-60 and the K-85. The K-85 is really more than the...

I initially flew my Cougar on a Jetcat P-60. It flew great and was very scale. However, the takeoff rolls were long and I was flying at 3/4 throttle or more most of the time. It was also obvious that...

Actually, mine do as well, but I'm going to modify that to take a standard-size servo. I'll probably use something like a Futaba S3010 on the flaps.
