RE: Mountain Models E-Tana Pictures
Just wanted to give a flight report. I have about 8 flights on the etana. Very nice flying airplane. It flies smooth, Beautiful tracking, knife edge, loops, etc. If you are going to put a firewall mounted motor in it, be sure and get the new heavier duty motor mount from Doug. It uses an 1/8 inch firewall.
I would also like to see a little more vertical performance out of it. I can just hover on 7/8th throttle. Not enough for a vertical pull out. I have been doing some experimenting with props, but I think I need to boost the battery. I am going to try an Appogee 2480. Does anyone make a 3000?
The plane floats in for a dead stick landing, it really doesn't feel the weight.
