Maybe my 3 lb (that's 48 oz with ignition, muffler, and battery) G26 is an aberration...Or my TNC tach is wrong ..Or my Zinger 18-6 prop is not 18-6..Ordered a Mejzlik 18-6 from Dave at DA yesterday, should have it tomorrow...
Taking off the source coil and mag rotor saves weight, and replacing the stock muffler with an Abell muffler gets 600 more rpm and less weight....
