Anyone built a 2548 Hellcat?
Does anyone have a 2548 Hellcat? A pointer to a kit would be even great. There's a guy here who wants to fly 2548 if there's a Hellcat. I don't have time to design one myself, so I'm looking for a design I can pass on.

Kirk I was looking for hellcat pics. DrewJet cut me some foam based on the turbo cad drawings in the 2548 forum. He built one that looked good. I just got around to attempting my first one. With a little coaxing I bet he could be convinced to cut some more. He was more that fair about what I reimbursed him for his time and materials

Kirk I got the first hell cat in the air and will wring it out at Bushwacked. I came in at 56oz. I cant get the RPMs up over 13,900 set up with the stock muffler and a 10X4 prop. It still turns and rolls similar to other 2548 planes. I think It would loop and turn tighter with a few more RPMs. If your buddy is interested I would drop Drewjet a line.
