Default First Jett 50 flight.

I finally got around to installing my Jett 50 in my Sonic 500. The engone is actually slated for my currently under construction Patriot. But no sense in letting it sit all alone in it's box. So, after about two hours of trying to get the blind nuts installed in the 500 I was off to the the field.

I ran a 9*7 and got some where around 17500 running a bit rich after break in. It is a real powerhouse. I only got in two flights because the covering started to peel off on the plane. But tommorow should be fun. Holding on to the plane was a real challange.

I see I have an 8.75*8.75 pylon prop in my parts box. Would that work better for speed?
