Jake- thanks for the numbers. my only issue is the CAP does not have room for a pipe or anything fancy beyond a pitts/stock muffler so I might have to go with a bigger motor?

Status: offline 		hi,

hey all another question if i could please. i have searched some spinners and figured this is the best variety option (i.e. various type propellors) to get to coincide with my wh baby extra (still waiting on the engine but hopefully it is sooner then later so its not fly ready yet. just accumulating more accessories for that time)

its the tru turn big bird 3 inch which fits up to a zinger 20x10

http://www.truturn.com/cgi-bin/store/agora.cgi?p_id=tt3052b:16&ppinc=spinners160&exact_match=on

is this a wise choice or should i go with a a standard slot or a wide slot?
as this is my first plane and gasser in which i have had to go and choose my spinner, i am not to savvy on the particulars...

is a back plate or lightened back plate needed with the 26? as i dont see this option with the big bird spinner

thanks

mike

Depends what it will weigh... they do have a 36 which is pretty narrow and makes as much power as the old 40

Status: offline 		april: I think the standard slot will probably be fine.. you are going to end up running an 18x6 so I think it should fit fine.

The backplate is directly related to CG.. the engine doesn't care. If you could get a lightened I would just because it's easy to move batteries and you will save weight overal. Either way I dont think it's a major decision breaker.

Also you don't need a prop adaptor.. save your money. They 26 is pre taped so all you need is a standard 10 32 bolt that comes with most spinners.

Status: offline 		April,
Just give the folks at tru-turn a call, tell them what prop you plan on using, they will be able to tell you what cut on the spinner you need. You can get a lightened back plate for a little extra. You will also need to get an 8mm bushing from them, this takes up the space between the hole in the back plate and the motor shaft. There is no prop adapter needed since Scott drills the prop bolt for a 10-32 bolt (which is what tru-turn uses), you may have to shorten the bolt a little but you won't know that until you get the spinner on the plane.

Status: offline 		Update - Flew today without the cowl. No problems.

I think the combination of cowl and velocity stack is causing the problems that I have been seeing. I will fly tomorrow with the cowl on and velocity stack off and see how it does.

Status: offline 		I think I will be good with just removing the velocity stack. I had it like that without a hole in the cowl and it seemed to work. I had added the velocity stack to troubleshoot another issue. I will report back tomorrow once I have flown it.

Also, the motor is a lot smoother with the 17x6 prop and it seems to pull a lot harder. Sometimes bigger is not better.

HMM? Maybe cuz the motor is getting more rpms so the prop is working more efficiant(sp?)
Cuz my dads was spinning that same prop like crazy. Hopefully we'll get to fly it Sunday and then at the Warbirds Over Delaware!!

It is just that these motors really work better when allowed to spool up to the 9000-10000 rpm range. I originally had a menz 18x6 on it that turned 8900 rpm. I think the 17X6 works just a little better, for my setup.

Status: offline 		Any idea about 3D performance of B26 on a Giles 202UL from Ultra-RC/OMP?
Brillelli's site have a picture of this Ultra Light Giles 76" with a B36GT but I'm thinking in a lighter combo using the 26-SSR.

I havent seen it myself,but I heard their using the B26 with a tuned pipe. I would think the 36 would make the wing loading to high on your Giles.

I would go with the B26,if it was my decision..
My B26ssr is plenty of power in my 17lb. Warbird..

I think a B-26 will work if you keep it as light as possible and use a pipe. Overall, the B-26 will fly anything an O.S 1.60 will if you use a pipe. I had an Ultra-RC Giles and had a B-46 on it. It flew good but was a little too much for the airframe. A B-36 might be just right if you have not purchased yet.

David
