Man o man if you bought one of those you be the man. King of GSN for a long while. Let’s face it would just turn that mustang of yours in to the ultimate mustang to have. You cannot do better than that.

Truth is, I looked at the 150 last night. It's really not that bad of a price. The more and more I think of it, the more I am convinced that I really want to have one up front pulling that Mustang around. Especially if I can get my hands on a prop reduction Drive. To make this mustang a fully scale size, it needs to have about a 33 inch prop. It does not look like that will be much of a problem for the reduction Drive. Simply reduce the pitch a degree or two and add it to diameter.

I am pretty sure that is what mine was. Do you know what your wingspan is? I believe mine was 96.

I do believe it is 96 inch. I thought of selling it a time or two, even listed it for a day. But I had wanted one for quite some time when this kit came along and I know with every fiber of my being I would seriously regret letting it go. Had a few smaller ARF versions over the years but never a good sized one. I will get to it one day!!!

If I am not mistaken Kolm build a reduction drive for it if they do not my bet is on Tony Clark he deals with Kolm and he will be able to help you out.

You may run into a space problem with a gear reduction system on a Mustang. I can not find a recommended prop size for the Kolm but keep in mind the four strokes have much more torque than a two stroke and turn a larger prop because of it. The Kolm being a 150 is comparable to my 170, I say that due to the added cylinder, of which I turn a 32x12x3 prop. But if a lower pitch was used the diameter could be enlarged. Toni Clark deals with these engines quite a bit and does not mind a phone call as I have spoke with him numerous times, I highly recommend calling him..
