Default RE: TF GS P-47 Engine Selection

Pappy the G62 has plenty of power it will fly the plane quite well at half throttle but this plane may come out at around 30 lbs and you will always want full throttle and max ground speed for takeoff. Accel slowly right rudder to keep it straight tail comes up full throttle for takeoff speed then ease back on the stick to climb out. I have a video in the members section of the TFGS P51 with G62 that should give you an idea of what the G62 might do. Good Luck, Kevin.
