Hi there.
Can you give me a bit of info with regard to the throttling and mid range performance of the 26cc IFS petrol motor.
It's a toss up of either the MTW TD40 canister or the 3266 tuned pipe.
The motor will replace my problematic YS 140-sport and will be fitted to my X-TECH YAK - 54.
The model is 73" span and weighs almost 11lbs.
Would a 12oz tank be sufficient for a 10 to 12min flight, which is a mix of imac and a little 3d.
Prop wise either a Mejzlic 18 x 8 two blade or 16 x 11 three blade.
Oil wise, can I use 3W's own fully synthetic oil which is currently mixed at 50:1 for use in my 3W-55i powered WH Extra 300S.
Any info would be much appreciated in helping me to make a well informed purchase.
Regards
Aeroboy.
*- The 3266 tuned pipe has best power and excellent throttle response, if used with the original header. If you need a longer header, go with the TD30 or TD40 muffler.
*- the engine uses 3/4 oz/minute, using an 18x8 prop. The 16x11 is not such a good choice.
*- oilwise, use what MVVS prescribes, and use that in all your engines, not the other way around.
