Default RE: Wild hare Edge and ZDZ-80 RV

If you are already proficient with foamies that really jump on command - go for it - prop it with the Pitts muffler on a 24x10 whatever
revs will NOT hurt the engine and if -again IF you are really into 3D -you should love it .
As a suggestion even if the engine is new - buy the Mobil 1 MX2T oil start and stay with 32-1 mix .
we have been running all of our ZDZ's on this and we now let em turn up - my 50 runs in high 7000 range with no scratches on wear spots on piston sleeve/ no carbon ,no bearing loosness.
If you are really new at all of this - too much power can get you in serious trouble .
We have been doing planes for years at 18-20 lbs with this engine (80 )- perfect match.
