Default RE: Engine-plane compatibility question please:


ORIGINAL: Turqui

Could i add a sullivan smoke pump with a pits muffler and obviously the smoke fluid tank? Engine will still be enough to pull the extra weight?
Thanks.
Yes no problem, just don't be tempted to add a large smoke fluid tank.

Keep your smoke usage on the "light" side ( it is MUCH more dramatic to kick it in on occasion ).

Because you are using a two stroke the engine will rev higher and hotter than a four stroke engine, so using a smoke pump will be less problematic.
