Hi Guys,I have been following this thread for months,picking up on all your tips and knowledge.
I first flew my 46Do about 4 weeks ago and I have her set up great.
My set up as follows:
Up front:West EurotechT50 and pipe,APC 13X4W,25% morgans coolpower.I have gas flowed the liner and skirted the piston.The motor Tachos at @ 12,700 on the ground and gives @ 9lbs of static thrust.Throttling is fantastic but most of the power comes at about 1/2 to 3/4 throttle.
CofG bang on 6!QUOT!,dry she weighs 51/2 lbs.
KE has a lot of coupling from using 1/2 rudder up over. She hangs on the prop all day at just over half throttle,pull out is a little slow.
I see that allot of you guys fly with Saito 100,s up front.What is the advantage and handling characteristics of using this motor?

Regards,Mark Palmer
