RE: prop for DD with pro.36

I have had three of these engines, two still running. For a "Clean" plane an 8x8 APC works great when the pipe is properly tuned. Mine turn in the low to mid 17,000 range on 15% Cool Power...

RE: Who wants a scale pusher prop jet?

It appears that this project is getting too complex to appeal to the average modeler. The general rule of thumb is to keep it simple and lightweight. The extra servos and hardware necessary to...

When does a shaved prop loose it's efficiency on speed?

Just remember that as you shave the tip (wash-out area) you effectivly increase the average pitch of the prop....(ie. a 9 x7 could turn into an 8 x 8 by taking 1/2" off each tip..get my drift???????

Crankcase volume

Thanks Gord. That's about what I figured. How many head shims (if any) are used in a DF engine? Do you need to keep the compression down for high R's?

Zinger Pro props for 3D?

The 28 x8 should give noticibly better pull, lower top speed (not needed in 3D flying anyways.) But may be too much prop to spool-up fast enough for hover, or quick recovery type maneuvers. Ought to...

Tune for RPM or Thrust ??

It is a good question! I've been fooling around with props on an outlaw with a TT Pro36. One thing I have noticed is that when I turn a 7.25 X 9 prop the same speed I turn an 8 X 8, the plane...

Who wants a scale pusher prop jet?

The X-35 is sweet looking and I would definatly be interested in "fast" semi-scale. The military look has a great "WOW" factor in my book.
