Default RE: Reaction 54 Jet Kit

G'Day John,

I havn't done any real tests, but my gut feeling is that I used less fuel with the SS because you spend less time at full throttle. I set a timer to 8 minutes and land with about 1/4 fuel in the main tank. I am sure I could get ten minutes of conservatibe flying. But then who wants to fly like that!!.
I can't get over the throttle lag (or lack of it) of the Wren SS. I can fly past at <half throttle and then throttle up in half the length of the strip and go vertical as far as I can see. It realy is a SUPER Sport.



Regards
