RE: What engine for a H9 Cap 232 1.20(1/4 scale)
Silversurfer and RCPilet
I'm sorry, but I must disagree with your logic. I have a 40 gas on a 1/4 scale as mentioned in my previous post, and it flys just fine. Pattern 3D IMAC or just sporting around the sky. With todays gassers it is possible to keep it light and CG can be had with little or no added weight.
Like I said my plane is 12# 8oz with a CG of 30% MAC and the engine is putting out almost 21# tatic thrust. To prove what a smooth flying plane this is I can only say this, It's my firt plane after a trainer, and I can handle it with no problems. (of course I don't do anything more than sporting around the sky, and a loop or roll here and there) If your ever in Cincinnati, drop me a line we'll take it out, and you can see for yourself.
