Yellow Aircraft Cap 10 B-Ryobi Engine
I have a Yellow Aircraft Cap 10 B and a new 28.5 cc Ryobi conversion. It will turn a 17-6 APC 7500 rpm. Will this engine fly this plane? It is under construction now and I think it will come out at around 17Lbs. I don't care about it going verticle, as I know it won't, just basic acro. Thanks, Gary

RE: Yellow Aircraft Cap 10 B-Ryobi Engine
Years ago I flew the Yellow Cap 10 with a ST 3000 on gas and ignition. It would turn an 18x10 at 7800. It flew just a little better than scale like.
I think your engine would fly the plane, but way less than scale like. Its like 17lb thrust (ST300)vs 10 lb thrust(Ryobi)
