RE: project:boredom relief
Hey REEL ,
Just curious how you came up with the 15,000 R's for a Husky motor while under load ? Most I ever got outta one was around 11.5 and that was done with a LOT of modifications ... ( 48 CC chainsaw motor ) ( have also done Shindaiwa's , Tanaka's , Homie's , Ryobi's, McCullough's , and an old Zenoah weedie .. )
But ... if you DO get that kind of R's .... then what kind of HP does that put out ? This is where the size of the prop would come in ( diameter I mean )
But , all in all , from what I have experienced and what I read .... I doubt very much that you'll get 100 mph outta her . ( also consider the weight of the motor too ... )
FASTRATFINK ( Larry . Super nice guy and also VERY informative and helpful ) also dabbles with chainsaw motors and he would be the one to get a TRUE estimate of speed from when trying to guess some figures for a rigger with a chainsaw powerplant .
