Default RE: Maiden Flight of GP Cub with GP floats

Hey chistech!
Used to see you alot on the Kyosho ME109 thread I think it was...or maybe the willhobby fw190 thread...anyway nice to see you here!
I've tried three different MAS props:13x6, 12x8 and 12x6, rpm seems a bit low with all of them relative to the advertised rpm. I was getting about 8k with the 13x6 and 12x8, 8.5k on the 12x6.

Just finished doing a new cowl and mounting an FA90t. We'll try that one out this coming weekend.

Replaced the bearings in the FA62...it had a bit of a buzz to it that my others don't. Havent had time to run it after that yet and I haven't run my other 62 in so long that I can't recall what rpm I was getting on it, though it seems to me it was appreciably more.
