RE: Good 3rd plane (3D) for > 8600 ft elevation
Hey guys....been a while
I decided to go with a Radical 330 since it was cheap. I plan on going to mojo eventually, waiting for arf but may just build it cause of non availability.
anyway, put a ys-63 I had on the rad 330, after tuning and proping I can bearly hold hover here at 8000'.
Guys at the field said you loose approx 3% of power for every 1000' so I'm -24%
So now I'm thinking of hanging a bigger engine on the rad 330
any suggestions? Is it worth the effort?
Was looking at a Saito 115
Will I just be chasing my tail by adding weight and thrust at the same time?
btw, it's a blast to fly and well worth the $70!

I know, everyone will say mojo, mojo, mojo..........I'm just not there yet
