Hi All,
I have one of those Hangar 9's with the evolution .45 on it. The people who saw if fly the first few flights weren't all that impressed with it. After I broke the three blade prop making my first landing, (I walked away unharmed, so it was a good landing), I put on a two blade 10x6. Everyone who sees/hears it fly now is pretty impressed? It's a much happier plane.
When you buy the engine alone it does come with the three blade prop (too bad), the fly wheel, and the spinner. If you buy the engine, I would think you would want to toss the 3-blade and keep the flywhee. It allows it to idle VERY slowly. Deadstick landings practice without the dead stick! No real deadsticks after about a gallon and a half, except for running out of fuel.
I bought a WM Super Sports 40 with a TT .46 Pro on it and I've been think of swapping engines to satisfy my own curiousity.
What kind of comparision would you like to see? Subjective on the performance? I'm sure I can find someone to put my SS40 thru its paces with it mounted. Time to climb? Static thrust for the same prop(s)? ???
Let me know, I'm open for suggestions...
Cheers!
