Talking about getting criticized.

A little over two years ago I built a thrust stand that you could mount a plane in and test thrust with different props.

Was at a fly in and was having some fun with it, Tested a Area51 with a 23-A Vess prop and a DA with a 23-A Vess prop, The Area51 put out 2lbs more thrust than the DA at the same RPM

Had the video posted on U Tube but got so much slack about it I removed it.

We did the test three time to make sure nothing was wrong, So showing people thrust test does not seem mean squash .

Haven't you heard, DA engines are best no matter what. How unamerican of you to post real thrust figures that show the DA is not king.

That said, an industrial G-62 is an excellent motor, as is the Echo/BME 50cc chain saw engine. Both will last a thousand hours without problems if tuned properly and run smooth.
