RE: GP Cap 232
berry,,,
sound excellent but if your doing a hover and you have it at full ailerons,,, you need to get rid of the prop wash thats causing the plane to torque like that,,, i went with a 20x8 wood prop... i will soon have a 20x8 mezjlik prop cuz when i put the on board glow starter on its gunna be a little tail heavy and the mezjlik carbon fiber prop will add a light nose weight without adding extra weight to the plane.. im not to sure about the motor your running,,, it sounds nice but there are a few things you can do to make run a little better. what kind of fuel and oil are you running? what ratio? and you can start from there.. im mixing my own glow fuel for my moki 2.10 that im running in my cap... it also has the perry pump on it so i dont have a problem with tuning it... i can peak the high end out on the ground and it wont lean out in the air as much or at all.. i have alot of pull on my plane right now at idle,,, its idling around 11-1200 rpm and i had to put some fuel tubing against the wheels and the collars to add a little bit of a break to it. that gas engine still and about 3lbs more than my plane cuz you have the extra servo and ignition and kill and eveything else so that changes a bit... im gunna put mine on the scale tonight and see what it weights... i should be around 12-13 lbs.... the maiden flight is this weekend coming up so ill be sure to give you a report on how it does... i want know were you fly up there in idaho... ill be up there soon..
thanks,,
