If it looks at all like the blank screen I get when pulling up the information, you got cheated. Big time.

SteveI asked Bruce Hunt (Heavy Stunt) what it took to put the ST .60 in his scratch-built IMPACT from FM Plans. He said the bulkheads worked stock, there was plenty of room for the engine without mods. D.Dirt flies his with ST G.51, Saito .56, and new one has a Saito .72. Of course the K&B/Veco .61, Merco .61, Stalker .61's, Double Star .60bb, and a few others would also work. Original (and favorite) power was the OS .40VF. My UHP Impact will have a Saito .72, tho it would be great with the Double Star.

The Kit comes as pictured. (less engine, props, etc) This plane was built by Mr. Dale Barry through Tom Morris's building service. I believe Tom Morris will build any airplane design that there are plans for through any stage of completion.
He is a real nice guy, very down to earth and his work speaks for itself. I believe he is also the editor/publisher of a magazine called Stunt News.
One of Toms "Quick Build" kits costs a little more, but if all your fingers resemble your thumbs like mine it is well worth it. If you don't have anyone in your area that will allow you to put your hands on thier airplanes to see how things go together it sure is nice to "hold" a "Correct" example to learn from. (Hey Al Rabe, is the house next door to you for sale?)
Time is another factor that comes into play. I figure if I was to take a week off of work and "Try" to build this same airplane to this stage/caliber of completion I'd still be up-side down.
I also bought an Impact Kit from Ultra Hobbies that is excellent quality. I plan on using it as the next step in the ladder.
The engines are OS VF .40's that I bought off *Bay.
I think it's important to support the guys that provide Control Line "Anything" including the BIG Companys like Hobbico.
Buy some Control Line "Anything" you deserve it!!!
PS: I support the BOM rules, they just don't apply to me as I don't care to compete on any level (just yet).

If you want to find out about *Tom Dixon* quick build kits, check his website. If you want to find out about *Tom Morris* quick build kits, you have to ask Tom Morris. You seem to have confused the two Toms.
