RE: CALLING ALL "TAURUS" OWNERS.

Bill,
Sorry to go back to prop size for the T52 - but I must have misunderstood you. When I purchased mine, I thought you said I should use a 20x10 for break-in. If that's not right, then what do...

Bill, from Taurus, recommends a 20x10 for break-in on the 52. Then switching to a 22x8 or larger after a couple of gallons. Apparently you want the engine to break-in at a higher rpm than you would...

Well I moved the rx battery away from the ignition battery (like it should have been in the first place) and the problem went away. Good range check with the engine running, at the house at least. ...

RE: PCM vs FM for gas/ignition

Thanks for all the input. Bill from Taurus Engines has been very helpful with sorting this out. Since it's my first gasser, I'm sure it's something I've done wrong. I'll separate the rx and...

RE: ST4500 thrust

Thanks for the reply. I've been using a 22X8 Zinger and getting around 6300 rpm. Sound right? Also, of note is the fact that after sitting unused for 3 or 4 yrs, it ran for about 30 sec and quit. ...
