RE: Alpha40 special prop
Ok nice. Some engines have surprisely less hp than others of same displacement and I've gotten the overall impression that the Evo trainer engine is like this, but I guess not.
New questions keep popping to mind as I return to my thread... Have you ever had to dead-stick with the Evo trainer prop? I was wondering if you'd get significantly less glide time. But I've read that the wind resistance is only part of the story of how the prop adds "breaking"... Supposedly it's partly also sort of like down-shifting when you reduce throttle (because of the paddle-like blades, it bites the air a bit more).
But anyway, is dead-sticking any more of a challenge with it?
Cheers
