TiredironGRB's Art Tech PC6 Pilatus Porter Build

[TiredIronGRB]

My Art Tech PC6 Pilatus Porter came last night and I did a little work on it...the struts are from a FMS 1400mm FW-190, Robart 4" wheels and 13" Unique Hobbies Corsair prop with a FMS 980mm P-39 nose cone.

The prop is from a Unique Hobbies Corsair, it's a 13X6X4.

After a second look, it is a lot bigger than the ole P-39 prop!!!

Hey T-I,
You will find the A-T PC-6 has a superb flight envelope & plenty of power for STOL & glider towing. I use an APC 12 x 8e prop & flight times just cruising around at 12+ min.. Yours should really fly with serious authority with that prop. Sad to say that parts are no longer available anywhere. Myself & a few others on RCG did snatch spare wing sets, H-V Stabs, & some small parts on Parkflyers site while they were still available. The cowl seems to be the most wanted & looks to be gone forever. Maybe someone will produce them someday. Good luck with yours & I'm sure you will like it as it does have a presence in the air. Nice paint job BTW. Bet you would really enhance the visual orientation with some orange/yellow on the wing tips & vert. stab. like on my DO-27.
