I flew my Eagle 1 five times today and it was great.
I tached it and got 10.800 rpm at vot and 1800 rpm at idle, and it unloaded much in the air.
I used a APC 11x8 and missle mist fuel, I think the vot rpm are to low?
Tomorrow I will take the engine apart for inspection, I think one of the rings are damaged.
Can I get new rings if I need, from whom??
Thanks

I was only able to get 10,500 out of mine, no matter how small the prop (within reason). But, I had the impression that it would pull much more prop without straining. I don't think APC offered the 11x9 back then and I have always wished that I could have tried one. Now that I have several of these engines once again, you can bet that I will give the 11x9 and 10 a try, just for hoots.
