Martin Harris - Moderator Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I think you'd be better giving us some details if you want some opinions - e.g. who makes it, how heavy? No not me - no T180 in my fleet... Edited By Martin Harris on 15/01/2014 19:29:01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Harris - Moderator Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I've found a review (sorry Messers Ashby - from another magazine) by Brian Cooper - which came out well over 10 lbs with a 20cc Petrol. That's equivalent to a 120 4 stroke in my book... Brian is not known for under-powering models but as a full scale aerobatic advanced trainer with a fairly high wing loading, the model needs plenty of grunt and I wouldn't be surprised to see the sort of engine range recommended and would probably opt for the 91 if it were mine.

Rich too Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Nice plane. I found them here for a great price but I believe they are out of stock. Why oh why don't these shops keep their websites up to date?! **LINK** Rich Edited By Rich2 on 16/01/2014 07:13:50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich too Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 to be fair on the main page for planes, the website states that it is out of stock. However, I bet that there will be no further stocks (not at that price) so why not remove it from the website..?

Willyuk Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 what a pity that they couldn't do the retracts like the real one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Ward Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 I have a Seagull 52 with a SC180 fs fitted, got this from a work college but have not flown it yet. Should have enough power I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis Watkins Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 You are right Tartan, when you consider 65 inches, it does not look right, but at 4kg it is quite heavy, for a small model. All the maths does say that a 61 will fly it, and is adequate, but the 90 is not much larger, and as advised, would be the better choice. I am feeble, and would fit a 61 on this model, but I do prefer sedate flying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
