Default Fast Shoestring!!!!

Well guys i finall was able to have my GP shoestring clocked. She was clocked at 109mph flying into a 15-20mph head wind with a 12x8 apc prop. I have a .91fx with a bisson pitts muffler in it i also have modded the wings and sunk the aileron servos into it. After i got home from that day i have since sealed the gaps and changed the prop to a 13x7 apc and she seems faster with that prop. I have yet to get out to the field and see if sealing the gaps will have helped with its top speed. So i figure with no head wind im lookin at around 120-130mph when all said and done.

The craziest thing is i fly basic IMAC with this plane!

See ya around
