Stuart Quinn-Harvie 1 Posted April 10, 2024 Share Posted April 10, 2024 Hi folks, I have googled looking for one of the above motors, assuming that if it's ok for the Mk 2 I can use it on a Mk1 Tutor with a bit of woodwork in the nose. I can't find one anywhere and my brain has basically had a small explosion and told me to get lost. SO: can anyone suggest an equivalent? ( I tried googling KMS 4120/05 equivalent but got nowhere fairly quickly ) I have no problem buying a new one but I DO have beside me an FMS Predator 3648/770 and a 60a speed controller which I have been speculating about - would that work? If not, can someone help out a melted brain type and tell me what to buy? If you're wondering what I am doing with a Tutor 40, I got it unbuilt in the box and would love to have it pootling about for calm Sundays, as I passed my A on one back in 2003ish but that one had an OS40LA in the front and I am a sentimental old twit as my girlfriend would put it. And I do recall enjoying flying the thing: it got a LOT of repairs back in the day resulting eventually in a total re cover ( apart from the fin, because why not ) eventually buying the farm after a downwind loop at zero feet. ( I know ) Anyway, thanks folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Quinn-Harvie 1 Posted April 10, 2024 Author Share Posted April 10, 2024 Blimey that was quick - thanks! I'll try both when I can get down the patch again ( and after a happy evening or two sticking the aeroplane together 🙂 ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
