Default RE: Engine increase factor for float plane conversion?


ORIGINAL: driedjello

I also think that if you have something like an OS .40 you probably need to up size a tick. I have an Avistar with that engine and she could barely break away from the water. I went to an os .46 and it was like a whole new plane!

I converted a Easyfly2 to a float plane and I could barely get it off the water. I'm going to try a .46 engine.
