RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

Staale, those snow pictures are amazing. I finally got my Tiger Meet F-16 converted to P200SX power from a P160SX. Complete and total transformation - hard to believe it is even the same airframe....

RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

The rudder moves about 12 degrees with the recommended rudder throw. A servo arm moves nearly 40 degrees at 100% ATV. To achieve the recommended rudder throw at 100% ATV, the linkage must give about...

RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

I put the maiden flight on my Tiger Meet. Conditions were a little breezy, but down the runway. Pics below are compliments of my crew chief (on and off the field).

Setup is P160sx in full bypass....

RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

Thanks Jay. Bob Wilcox gave some guidance as well. Appears that 1" would be the minimum for the 160.

RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

I need a little advice regarding placement of a P160 in a full bypass setup. The first pic shows the turbine placed so that adequate bypass air can flow around the front of the turbine without a...

RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

Thanks Craig. I'm assembling my Tiger Meet now and have a couple of small cracks in the aileron hinge line at the root. May never become a problem, but planning ahead just in case. Your mod looks...

RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

Thanks Tor. I finally started work on the F-16 - presently working on the servos and control horn installation. I'm going to do a couple of mods, including your rudder setup. The P-160sx is sitting...

RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

Thanks Rex!

I measured fuel tank volumes. Saddle tanks are 64 oz each and the top tank is 80 oz. WOW! Way more fuel (and take off/landing weight) than I need for a 160. I'm going to replace the...

RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

A Tiger Meet pro version arrived at my door step yesterday. I'm about to start the assembly, so I read 50 pages of this thread and took notes. I'll do several of the modifications, particularly the...

RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

OK, I've skimmed this thread, but I have not read every post. Will a P160sx fly this plane with authority assuming it is rigged for minimum weight and with no ordinance? Not looking for unlimited...
