CCRCS Tom's Bobcat 50

This is my Nitro Planes Bobcat 50, powered by an OS .61 FX with an APC 11x7p.
The retracts are pneumatic. Thanks to Mike for filming the flight. I estimate the passes between 90 and 95 mph. I will post the actual speed once I get a chance to get the radar gun on it.

with it being a pusher prop do you have to put the prop on backwards on the motor?

@flyboycub Turning the prop around won't work, you have to use a special "pusher prop" with the pitch reversed.

Very nice plane. Seems pretty quick..nice go-around/landing. What does she weigh "all-up?..

[tipper22v]

@jetcrasher1 Thanks. It weights 8 lbs 3 0z with a half tank of fuel. It gets around the pattern pretty quickly, although I am a little disappointed. I was hoping to get 110, but it looks like I'll be lucky to get 100 mph on the radar gun. Oh well, it's still a hoot to fly and looks great on those low passes with the gear up!

Nice.....

A lot better landing than the last several I have witnessed......

Definitely looks like you have it dialed in now...

Can't wait to get it on the Radar gun for an "official" top speed.
