Stihl 032 success
I flew my converted 032 for the first time yesterday. It is on a 27% CA extra. All up 16lbs. It ran great with good power and throttle response. This was a new engine and a new air frame so I only put a couple of flights on it then went home to recheck everything. I made the prop hub, muffler etc myself and put a C.H. ignition on it. All together I have less than $300 dollars in the complete power package. This includes rebuilding the donor engine with new bearings and rings. The guys at my field were mildly interested before it flew, but after seeing it, came over to give it a closer look. Turns a 20x12 up the same as a DA that I checked. I will try to upload a couple of pictures of the engine later.
