I'm going to try and fly my Twist with a Saito .56. Had the engine sitting around, and got tired of listening to how much better said airplane would fly with a 4 stroke. I know that .56 will prop hang a 40 Rascal very nicely, so I'm guessing it's going to be more than a match for the Twist. It turned a 12x6 at better than 10 grand, so a 13x4 APC, one of the broad bladed 3D props, is mounted. I also have a 12.25x3.75 if that turns out to be too much.

I know I saw a post where someone else mentioned they were mounting a .56, if so, and if you're still around, how did it fly? I don't expect to rocket off from hovers, but I'm not quite up to hovering reliably yet, so it's not an issue.


TIA,

Andy
