RE: Showtime gas engine
Nice cutting - I opened mine up a bit more .
The addition one pound and 200 sq inches make a huge difference in performance.
Still hovers nicely tho and has unlimited vertical -just not a rocket like the Showtime .
The 260 tho at 11.25 lbs is a feather to fly - very easy, controllable, floater.

RE: Showtime gas engine
I am getting ready to build my SHOWTIME and I have a YS140Sport. Is this too much motor for this plane? I Dont want to rip off the firewall, but at the sametime I want a good reliable engine That flip starts 1st time everytime. Thanks for any input.

RE: Showtime gas engine
I flew mine with the EVo 26 and pipe. My CG was too far forward to tell a whole lot. I will say this " my showtime is now a rocket" I dont think I have a more powerful plane. Its actually too much at my altitude, 500ft ASL. I moved my batteries back so next good day I should be able to tell more. A great engine starts easy and has great power from day one.
As Dick H said he did a review in the January issue of 3D flyer, good review BTW Dick.
