Title: I got them!
Post by: longnine009 on October 17, 2012, 03:42:57 AM
Just got the Thunderbolt plans. Funny how I get mail from
Canada faster than from within the U.S. But get this.
When I bought them it said the plans called for a .23 engine
which didn't make sense for 31 inch wingspan. But when
I looked at the plans it has a wiring diagram for the engine iginition.
LOL These plans were drawn in 1946 by a former P-47 pilot.
The plans show wires going from the engine to a booster
box, whatever that was, to a  coil and then a battery
under the cockpit.  So without all that crap it might go
like a rocket on a .15.  They're nice clean well drawn
plans. I actually think I can BS my way though this and
mooch a .15 moter from my father. He's got about a
1,000 airplane engines.

Oh you'll still be hearing  from me as long as that mogoloid
in the Federal Reserve is destroying the country.  :'(

I tried uploading images before from this phone. I don't
think it does that.  In fact it has enough trouble just fogging
a mirror.  Too bad, you guys would get a kick out of this
ignition diagram.

Tear up the plans in a fit of rage? Is that why TKO said
to get six copies made? :D
