Status: offline 		Here's another engine option;It may be overkill but it fits.Its a Zenoha 62 with a Mick Reeves redrive.1:75 ratio .This will turn up to a 28-30" 2 blade prop so a scale 3 blade prop would be possible maybe?Also is it too heavy at over 7lbs?...I plan on putting this into my GTM 1/3 Fokker D7 which I'm doing right now but I just wanted to check out how it fits in the T/F FW 190

Status: offline 		Well, anyway. I'm mounting my DLE55RA in this as after Black friday, my funds wouldn't allow another engine purchase and I already have several of these for what was to be later builds. I should get it in today. Then I can finish the cowl and get this ready for glass.

Status: offline 		More progress. I still need to mod the cowl to be correct with the gun hood. I'm a little concerned about the cooling with those fake exhaust installed. I'm considering just opening them up if possible.

I agree,after looking at all these options I'll probabily go with a well broken in DA 50 with a stock muffler...or the G62

IF the belt did break (unlikely) It wouldn't flap around any at all.


Gear drives ussually don't work well in heavy metals, but if this is a 1.75, it would work better than most 2.5.

Yes and if you make it mad its a hand full!

About 2 years ago i visited a museum out side of Berlin. They had a good ol BMW 801 out on the floor for display. If you ever get a chance its an amazing place. Its an easy train ride then just hop on the bus.
