Default RE: How does big two stroke engine sounds like ?


ORIGINAL: jrotor

Hi,

I've never seen anyone who has 140 size two stroke with pitt muffler yet, and I really wonder
how it sounds like. Does it sound like a four stroke engine ?
I bet it's quite different to 40 size two stroke engine.

If it sounds good for a warbird, I'd stay with two stroke engines.
Thanks

I wanted to put a big four-stroke on my 1/4-scale Giles but saved some money and installed an O.S. 1.60FX two-stroke and stock muffler. It sounds great! After a flight, guys at the field have asked me if I have a four-stroke in the Giles.

The big ones have a much deeper note than the small ones and sound much nicer, in my opinion.

Good flying,
