Hi Ari,
Over weight, over powered, and over there? (down under!)
Way to go!
Pretty much Pe!
You may recall our discussions about this plane a while back. I initially set it up for air racing in a category limited to 62cc where the exhaust had to be contained within the cowling (read: no tuned pipes or other fancy exhausts) and noise level was also limited (read: no open exhausts)
The engine is a stock standard 58 IRS whereas Earl's engine will be the same as the Prosport (I assume)
The plane weighs approx. 10.5Kg and goes extremely well with this combination. A lot of side torque on takeoff due to the heavy propping but like most, the plane has a rudder
I am in the process of fitting another identical one into a scale 104" TL-2000 (a Czech Ultralight) that I bought a few weeks ago.
Sorry to hijack your thread Earl. Back over to you
