COMP 1/4 F4F WILDACT

Postby graham buchanan » August 15th, 2009, 8:42 am

Hi all,

Just got in our new composite 1/4 scale Wildcat !!!!!
This kit is going out to one of my customers in the US, but the good news is he wants it assembled and painted, so I will do a small build thread on here after I come back my hols.

Here is the vid of the prototype out in Germany,the Cat is flying on a Moki 250 Radial and as you can see she shifts with this in her, I recon she would fly on the Moki 150 just as well.

Some pics of the cat and the beautiful mane gear which is air up sprung down.
We will be loading more info on the Tiger page soon!!!

Hi Jason , Mike,
Sorry for the slow reply, but thanks for the comps on Scott's Cat very much appreciated.
Well the reason for my slow reply is that I have been hard at it on No 2 Cat, this one again has just gone out to the US, Texas.
Barry the proud owner has just test flown her at the weekend with success, so he now is on the long drive to Florida for Top G which is this weekend, so I wish him the very best of luck.

Here are some pics of No2 "Butch" and also the link to the test flight, the vid is not as good as the first but you can still see how good these Cat's fly.

Hi Graham,

Great looking aeroplane - hope they do you credit at TG.

Andy, you'll have to give the Colonials some lessons in low level flying
