Default RE: Twinstar engine options


ORIGINAL: R/CBOONE72

I am gonna buy a 40 sized twinstar arf from tower hobbies. I would like to know what some of you are running for engines.
My Twinstar is a rocket with two Tower .40 (bushing engines). They have 10X7 props. I have had several one-engine-out landings, the plane isn't too bad to land with one dead.

Some folks will run two .25 engines, some go for .50's. I've heard of people running .30 fourstrokes. As fast as mine is, I don't think I'd recommend the .50 twostroke to someone who's asking for advice.

Enjoy,
Dave Olson
