Weekend was the first chance I had to fly, day was great and things went pretty well. One problem that cropped up was binding between the drive washer and the case. I have two PAW 19's and one drive washer ( I need to order one from Eric C) on the engine I put in the ship the drive washer fit with almost no end play. I thought this would be a good thing cause I wanted to use the starter. Well truth is you need some end play on the plain bushing engines. I think that as the started pushed onto the spinner it just move the drive washer in and caused the binding. I did get one flight in before I noticed the bind but the engine was low on RPM at only about 8400 on a 10x4. Lap time was 5.4 on 60 ft a little slow would like 5.1. Knowing about the bind I changed to the other engine tha has a little end play and expect this will work better an get a little more RPM.
