Well i couldn't stand it so i took my mini with the newly installed .25LA out in the garage tonight to see how the little thing would run. I have never been all that impressed with the LA/FP series engines but i have high hopes for this one. It started and ran very well. I have a 9X4 MA prop on it now because that is all the local HS had but hopefully i can round up a 10X3 and a 10X4 before i get a chance to fly it so i can compare the 3. Anyway, with plain old 15% fuel, this little engine seemed very strong. I absolutely can't wait for the weather to get better, probably not for another 3 months though. Hey Wayne, let's find some flying jobs in FL and move down there! What do you think?
