Default RE: Everything Radial Engines

Tom:

Maybe I just have a thick head I mean hide, of course, but I didn't see nything abrupt in your earlier posts.

Numbers on the engines? Somewhere I have all the TP specs, but they are all the older series and have no application to the latest production. If I posted what I have on them it wouldn't be fair. Suffice it to say that the older TP engines, when used in an appropriate airplane, were excellent.

The old Burgess/Morton was the real dog of model radials, very few people managed to get a plane off the ground with one, the ones who did could just barely maintain level flight. Anything more was completely out of the question.

Bill.
