BVM BobCat.
Bob Violett Models BobCat. The BobCat is a simpler design all composite molded ARF that can be flight ready in a minimum amount of assembly time. It is medium sized with many of the advanced features of the larger KingCat.
Thanks to “strongmankb” for the model.
Various modifications for good flight performance in RF 7.5. The jet engine has been upgraded to JetCat P100-RX specifications.
Flight controls include throttle, rudder, elevator, ailerons, retracts, wheel brakes, and landing flaps.
Fly with the channel 5 rate switch in the “High” position.
The landing flaps are now engaged via channel 6. I added the flap control surfaces to the wings, so they visually aren't there, but their effect is definitely felt.
Wheel brakes were also added, and are auto engaged with the landing flaps.
Retracts are on channel 7.
With 22 pounds of thrust this model is very fast. Handling is fairly light. Reasonably decent landings that will require some piloting skill. Flies very much like the real world physical model. Pilots with a skill level of intermediate and up will enjoy flying this high performance model.
