Default RE: Taurus 52 experiences

For all the people that are looking for rpm numbers I broke down and ran the 22-8 Menz "S" prop today. It's another wide blade prop. Keep in mind that the MSC 22-8 is turning 6,720 and I'm extremely pleased with the performance with 1.5 gallons of fuel through the engine so far.

The Menz immediately jumped up to 7,500 rmp. Impressive, huh? Ran and flew well but IMO the MSC still outpulls it. Those numbers match or exceed the average DA, so it's definately up there in power. I'm sorry to say it, but the Taurus 52 definately beats both my Brison 3.2's in every aspect except midrange, where both engines shine with no burbals or blings at any time.
