He did say, previously, that the 61 was OTT with power!

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

Hi Owen Eric is right,to me the SC 52 is just right for this model.I did put an SC 61 in one of mine and it deadsticked and went in like a bomb,obviously needed more weight to the rear,

I like the sliding collar for the steerable tail wheel, anybody know if they're generally available?

Do it now, you may never get another chance

You could use a small saddle-clamp, Klippy, but I've seen bits of zip-tie with a small bolt through it used there, as well.

Most ARTFs use this method so I would have thought there is a possibility of them being available seperately
