GP Ryan/OS 120 pumped engine owners need only reply
OK after three months I finely was able to put a couple of flights on the Ryan STA-M this week end and I really like it. After speaking to a fellow member at our club which has the sport version he is packing a bit more weight up front in the wing compartment then I am and he told me that his CG was just about right so I did a similar setup but a bit less weight. The difference is that he has two 6 volt battery packs and an on board glow system. I am using two 4.8 volt packs with a remote system. I did not bother actually CGing the plane but it flies straight and level with hands free but it seems to me that it wants to land like a nose heavy plane, maybe thats just its character. Can someone enlighten me on this.
Also after propping a 15X8 prop on the OS 120 FS I found that it was still a bit over propped so I bumped it down to a 15X6. Now heres what I can't figure is that my Satio 100 is turning the same prop go figure, I guess theres not really that much difference between the two.
