RE: How Much Thrust?
Thank You Is there some formula or calculator program that is used to obtain the thrust? I would like to get 19 - 20 pounds. if possible. I plan to use this engine on a 11 - 12 pound plane. Thanks Bob

RE: How Much Thrust?
I have just tried a lot of different props, with the exception of Bolly, Mejlik, Menz. If you can get 19-20 #, let us know what prop you achieved it with. I have used a couple different thrust calcs and haven't found one that is really accurate.
P.S. A Bisson pitts muffler and a V-30 Perry pump will substantially increase performance and mileage on the 160fx.
