Had my Mustang out for its initial ground tests today and found out that after sitting for a while the engine needs alot of priming to get it going, this is quite normal as thngs dry up and tnd to stick when not used for a while.. but got it running eventually and testing some different prop pitch settings... I will be using about 16 inch pitch in this ramoser 26.6 inch 4 blade prop to get at least 4500 static on the ground..should give me around 5000 in the air..

now just to tidy up some loose ends and its getting closer to maiden....just in time for flying season
