RE: YS 63FZ prop on H9 Funtana 40
tIANci - you are evil. i have way too many planes. if i get the CAP, i'll be in double digits in terms of NIB planes. no... i'm going to wait off until you get it flying at least.
i flew yesterday and had a dead engine on my Rambler 30 after a long spin from alitude... didn't realize it until i leveled out. not enough altitude to make it back and so ditched it in high grass, ripping the gear in the wing. not too much damage but very painful as it's my favorite plane.
my funtana flew but not well. turns out the o-ring on the needle is broken so the needle allows air to pass through. when it's too lean, it's too lean, when it's too rich, it's too lean because the needle is loose and letting air through. both scenarios are scary for a Y.S. engine that ruins spinners and throws props to after three flights, i called it a day.
