RE: 3w-240 engine problems
Silver,
Yes, but a 36x14 is not like any other 36x14. There are huge differences in load from one manufacturer to another. Look at the MSC36x15, supposedly one 1" larger pitch, but a prop they use on the zdz420b4, a much larger engine. I was just pointing out that the engine has to turn 5-5.2k minimum to be happy.
I understand you fly those 300lb 3W240 and Herbrandson290 powered turds around some times too. I know those 240 run pretty well in those airplanes, I suppose they get run in pretty much on the first flight with 30 gallon fuel tanks he he.
