RE: AW Profile help
I agree that the power of the OS FX 1.60 is ideal for this airplane. I have one problem though. I have a Moki 180 on mine and it came out TAIL heavy. If my 42oz engine gives me a tail-heavy airplane what will the OS's 32oz due to it?
The Moki will eventually turn this plane inside and out. For now I'm still breaking it in -- only have 1.5 gallons and am barely getting 6700rpm from a Top Flight 18x10. Even so, she had no power problems on her maiden flight.
I wish I could say she had no problems on her maiden flight. Two landings have been mode on this plane, both virtually perfect float-in 3 pointers. On the second landing, while taxiing her back to the pilot area I noticed my prop replacing the club's grass mower. It seams the 2 perfect landings were too much for the butter-soft landing gear. I contacted AW and they are sending me a new landing gear set -- should have received 2 sets with the ARF kit, but didn't.
