RE: GP Super Stearman
My super Stearman had its first flight a week ago (till today it has about ten flights).
I used OS FT-160 gemini to power it and I am very pleased. No neeed for extra nose weight, enough power to swing 18x6 prop at 7,500 rpms, scale sound and a total weight of 6.5 kg. It is really a great combo.
To Crashburn69:
Right thrust is built in the firewall. No way to avoid it. If you do so your prop will not be centered in the cowl. Afterall even with the built in right thrust I need right rudder a lot at take-offs.
