Default RE: RE: Half-A Profile Funfly

Well I just fired off my AP Hornet 0.061 powered, 14 5/8oz, no landing geared Half Wit. I had to use a Dubro 2oz fuel tank that weighs in at 2 1/4oz so if and when I build the film canister tank I will save over an once. When I build my next one I will use lighter covering and less colors so I can save a little more. I will also try and find a lighter arrow. Mine is way to heavy.

My little AP just does not have the power to hover the plane running 10% fuel. I am hoping that this weekend when I run 20% it will help some. Mine is for some un known reason not idling worth beans now. I tried 6 props and the flexy Cox props do work better.

Does the Norvel engine put out more power then the Ap engines do on the same nitro???
