Picked up this from a club member today. Pheonix models Strega. Guy impulse bought it a few years back. Said he got it out the other day to start putting it together and realized it's far beyond his flying abilities so he gave it to me. Designed around a 45-55 size two stroke nitro engine. A buddy has a Rossi 60 with a pipe he is sending me to use on it. Should haul the mail pretty good. Got everything for it as well other than a low profile retract servo.

Hey Chris,

You better make sure you put the wing together and attach it to the fuse REAL WELL with that Rossi in the nose. . . . . . :yesss: If you don't, you may end up with a very fast lawn dart. . . . . . :laughing:

A piped Rossi .60 will definitely test it's integrity.
All depends though. When the motor shows up I will see how it fits but if I cant get it where the pipe is hidden under the wing then I will not be going that route. It will just get a good ole OS 46fx or 46ax.
