Default RE: Showtime

Hello friend, I builded mine with an OS 1.08 and it fited perfectly sideways with the pitts muffler, the problem with this engine is not that it fits or not, the problem is that the OS 1.08 doesnt have the power neded to 3D this plane it all. I flew mine with a brend new OS 1.08 and 15 % nitro coolpower fuel and different props, I used an APC 17x6, 16x4 and 16x8 and it didnt hold on a hover not even over have power and the pull out was really poor. I wouldnt waste time and fuel with these engine and the showtime,

Hi,

Can somebody please tell me if the OS 1.08 will fit under the cowling of the showtime with the
Bisson inverted pitts muffler.

I would like to see some under cowl pics with this engine if possible?

Cheers,
Sam.
I would go direct for a YS 1.10 or even better a ys 1.40. I was really thinking that the OS 1.08 was going to do well on the showtime but I was really desapointed on the performance to the point that I am not fliyng the plane againg until I put a new engine in it.
