Hi!
Sounds rather good!
But... I would like to see you needle the engine...from a little rich to full rpm! Can you do that!?
I certainly can do that. Sometime later this week I'll try to get the stand back out and bring my tripod along and let 'er have it some more. I have 3 other props I want to try out on it so I'll probably go to the park where nobody will be bothered with me and my crazy noise for an hour or two.

In the mean time I'm going to re-tool my test stand a little. The throttle lever needs to be modified, and I'm going to make an insulated stand for my tach to get mounted to. I have verified the tachometer's calibration as I get 3600 on the screen when pointing it at an incandescent light. (At least thats what I was told on my airboat forum..) I plan to make 3 vids of the 3 props, and I'll "needle" the engine with all three. I'm not a master tuner, but I know when it sounds the nicest means its at max power.
