winsor68 Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Found this on E-bay... I believe they are both Scouts, a MK1 and a MK2. I am sure someone will be interested in acquiring these.

Guest ozzie Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Those robins are pretty well bullet proof. we found one that had not been run for 15 years. put new fuel lines on and it fired right up, ran great and is still running 5 years later still using the same spark plug.

Spin Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 You know if they were closer I'd be tempted to take a punt and make an offer, I rather fancy the look of those floats, although I wonder whether there is the excess power to drag them into the air. Probably just as well - the other half would bust a gasket if I bought a couple of aircraft to join the boats in the shed:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ozzie Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 The seascout actually flew a little better than the land version as the floats produced a some additional lift. that glass pod weighs a heap and detracts from the gain of cleaning up the drag. hope someone grabs them so they don't end up on the scrap heap not much time left to act on them. those two engines would be good for a cri cri project with the redrives they produce heaps of thrust.

winsor68 Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 I have an idea... How about a group of us put in a few bucks each and purchase them for the Ra-Aus museum on behalf of the Recreational Flying Website? Anyone interested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ozzie Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I was going to ring him on the weekend and ask him if he wanted to donate them instead of chucking them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winsor68 Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 I thought from the last I read it was not complete... And $1500 dollars is not a major investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
