I'm surprised Chumley hasn't finished his yet! Hey Chum, how's your build coming?

Mike-
Couple of questions about powering the 80" fusion:
1. I plan on using O.S. 1.60 2 stroke. With 20% nitro. What size prop can you recomend?
2. Can you please provide details about your "bud muffler" that is in the pics of the kit? It is made of two cans. What size holes in the front one, and what is the diameter of the outlet at the second can?
Thanks!
EB

Why so much nitro for the 1.60
I fly the 80" Edge on a 1.60 with 5% and it's fine.

Just curious?

I have run several 160's on either 5% or 10% with wood 18 X 6 props. I tried APC's but they are heavier and don't wind up as quick. I also have never seen the need for a pump, if you get the needles set right. I fly at 1200' and 6000' altitudes.

Not a great video but here's some footage of the OMP 80" Fuison flying some pattern and 3D mixed together. We shot this at our field behind the Air Force Museum but the weather was kinda overcast and crappy. But we still had a ball! This thing tracks on rails and will do anything my giant scale planes will do but at a fraction of the price and much less pucker factor. No bad habits whatsoever.

Motor is the OS 160 running on 10% Cooper fuel and APC 18-6 prop. Using my patented Budwieser can muffler and MACs header.
