There was an electric plane in the Tower Hobbies 87' to 89' catalog i believe that had a Le Mans 360pt stock issue in it. Anyone know which plane it was or remember seeing it?

I will search my catalog for you when get home. The ones I remember were the Etude and Duet. The etude came with a 540s. I don’t recall if the duet came with motors. They sold a motor package with the 240s or 360pt. I’ll see if I can find any that came with it though.

Ok, I looked over my 1988 Tower, and my 1988 and 1990 Kyosho catalogs, every plane in those that came with a motor was an AP29, AP36, 540s, or 240e. This chart was the only other piece I could, otherwise you just have to go to each planes description but I didn’t see the 360pt as standard on any plane.

Yep, looks like that option for the 360pt for the Etude is what i was thinking of, thanks for checking for me. :D
