MOKI 210 in 29% Bucker Jungmeister
Hi
I have a MOKI 210 in a 29% Bucker Jungmeister that is kind of heavy at 22 pounds but I am very happy with it.Have about 20 flights or so on it. Have used either SIG FAI fuel as well as Cool Power FAI with 4 oz of Castor added per gallon.
The last few days did some experimenting with different props and based on flight performance an APC 20 x 10W looks to have the best pull and climb for aerobatics.Will fly nicely at half throttle.
Prop types:
ZINGER 22 x 8 turns around 6,200 RPM and plan will fly level at about 2/3 throttle.
ZINGER 20 x 10 turns around 6,500 RPM but flys about the same. Maybe a little faster.
APC 20 x 10Wturns around 6,700 rpm and flys level a half throttle with excellent climb out at full throttle.
Loops are much larger with the APC prop.
This kind of mimics my experience with a OS MAX 1.6 2 cycle in a 1/4 scale WW1 Albatros Dva. With various 18 x 6 wood props the climb out was OK but sometimes marginal. With an APC 18 x 6W there was a much better climb out after takeoff and would fly well at half throttle.
The APC props may not look as nice from a scale model perspective and they are heavier but the performance increase was noticeable.
The MOKI 210 is the first MOKI for me and as long as I prime it well it starts very nicely. Runs like a top and lots of power.
Cheers
Ray
