I finally maidened my Twist 150 today... I ran one tank through my Thunder Tigre G2300 to break it in a little, and got a couple of flights in before the snow started coming down! I still have to lean out the low end needle some more, and tone down my low rate ailerons a little for my liking, but from what I can tell so far, if you're a Twist 60 fan, you won't be disappointed in the Twist 150... I'm very pleased with it. It seems to float in for a landing even slower that the 60 does. It seems to knife-edge as well or better than the 60. With the G2300, it seems to have plenty of power, even though it's new and running a little rich right now.
Is that engine a Supertiger 2300 or a ThunderTiger???? Thanks Capt,n
DOH! Yeah, that would be a Super Tigre, my mistake!

I ended up putting a Perry carb on it to get it to run better. It still doesn't run as well as I'd like. I have to run it pretty rich, and it still has some hesitation in transition, but at least it doesn't die out.
