Guess you can cram a FM radio and a flybar on it as well if you really want to. Question is tho, why would you?

I have the Henseleit parts so I thought this could be for winter flying where the lipo sucks. Because of the crash I will make my own frames and then I could make one for the electric and one fit the nitro.... Sent from my Apfel using Tapatalk

I don't think anyone mentioned it is impossible. However I personally do not expect SAB to come up with a nitro version of it. Its is designed for electric - converting to nitro will require different frame, motor mount (like the one from the older Henseleit Nitro models) and adjustments on the canopy. It will be interesting to see how well your frame will handle vibration. Also interesting will be seeing where you place the engine to keep CG at the right spot.
So keep it going - looking forward to see your conversion. |

Since nitro flying was forbidden at our flying field in 2013 due to noise. I dropped this idea and sold all the nitro stuff.

Is there still any serious interest in this?
I started towards building a nitro Goblin couple years ago but stopped due to some machining challenges which I couldn't over come with my home setup. Fast forward.. I've recently located a small run production facility that can make the necessary parts at a decent rate. A run of 5 conversions isn't too bad $$$ wise but at 10 it's about the same as typical stock parts. If we can round up enough people to go in on a production run I can make this happen.
