Default My Engine Conversion Plane (Mitsubishi 33cc)

Hello Everyone,

Just to share some pics of my Weed Trimmer engine conversion plane.

Its kind of a self designed Long John with the wings of an U-CAN-DO 3d 60.

The engine is a converted Mitsubishi TL 33cc with nothing more than baffles taken out of the muffler, its original 10.5 mm Mikuni carb and a prop hub.

I have fly it with different props with the following results

- Master Airscrew 16x8 wood @ 7,400 RPM
- APC 17x6 @ 8,000 RPM

Even though it seems to have a better performance with a 17 inch prop it flies better with the 16 one, maybe I´ll try a 15x10....any comments will be apperciated.
