Well SpeedBoy, that is certainly the fastest speed I've ever heard of for a Patriot. That is right about 30 MPH faster than mine was.

Congratulations!

Well , maybe if you put on it a rossi 53 can help you

This engine (rossi 53 ) is a big one to me , when I put in a dave my patriot , the rpm increased seriously even with 10x8 apc , I dont know how much exactly , but scream like a angry cat and the rpm keep constant , never lose the thrust

It could be a good option !

YS .45 (side exhaust) with the Mac's pre-tuned pipe setup, Magnum #1 fuel, APC 10 X 7 to 10 X 9. I only checked the RPM once and I cannot remember which prop I was using at the time but I do remember ground RPM was right around 16k.

I flew this setup before I learned what I now know about props, engines and racing. If I still had it, I would try 9 X 9 or even more pitch.

In my list of projects-to-get-to-some-day, I want to build a better, new and improved Patriot. Glass fuse with rounder lines, thinner wing with a true racing airfoil, slightly smaller in every dimension, and using an old racing motor and APC racing props for power. Yet again, if I ever get my hands on a Jett .50 RE or even better a .60 LX, I would use that for power.

Fun stuff!

Status: online 		js3 : Thanks for data .

I think if you had 16k probably was with 10x7 , I have a YS 45 in my ultra sport , tuned pipe 7.5 cc 15,500 10x7 , Power Master 10% maybe with 20% nitro it could have a little more .

Apparently we thought the same project , a patriot modified but I think in a rossi 60 speed rear exhaust for enclousure the pipe in side of fuse (up side).

I have the idea to modify the wide of the airfoil wing , as thin as it is possible , but I have a doubt , maybe you can help me .

I dont know if in this case , works better a wing airfoil symmetrical or semisymmetrical , what do you think ???



I hope that my message is understood

Yeah, I'd try to enclose the pipe too and make a pressure cowl.

As for symmetrical or asymmetrical airfoil, it probably doesn't matter that much. Tight, pylon style turns aren't necessary so the airfoil selection isn't as critical in my opinion. That said, Martin Hepperle and Michael Selig have lots to choose from. Remember, the wing must be thick enough to accommodate retracts.

The Rossi .60 is a beast! But it weighs a lot.

Yes that is true , maybe I can fixed , with a little modification on the wing , I'll try make a piece of carved wood ( aerodynamic ) up side of the wing , just over retractil , mmmm for one better explanation, tomorrow I show you a drawing with the piece that I mention and I would to know what you think of that .
