RE: .074 powered
Hi Combatpigg, the model that you've drawn up only has 198sq"s.
That is TOO SMALL for that engine. I suggest you redraw to over 250 sq"s
of wing area. I 'm flying a Sig Akromaster (240sq" wing area), using an
MP-JET .061cu" diesel; this model flys beautifully on 44' X .008" lines.
I'm also flying a modified Ringmaster Jr (195sq") on the same 44' lines
that is pulled very strong, approx 56mph, using a PAW .049 Deluxe diesel.
your Norvel has significantly more hp than the PAW .049. There have been
many 240-250sq" models flown with PAW .049 diesels. I'll even wager that
the 300 sq" Peacemaker would fly very well with the Norvel .074.
Good luck;
Tony
