Default RE: Prop for GT80 on a Sukhoi

Ouch, I dont see why zenoah cant make that engine perform... My zdz80 is half the weight and twice the power.... Mine hovers at about 1/3 throttle...
Buddy had a GT80 in a H9 extra, not a power house at all, great for IMAC, but lacking for pull up power..
I have flown a Sukhoi with the GT, it flew nice, and is still alot of fun, but I dont see why anyone would buy one new.. .02

Thanks for the reply, I'm using a Bolly 24 x 10 and it takes about 3/4 throttle to hover.
