What`s there to what about? I really don`t think his plane weighs 3 kilos unless it is VERY VERY heavy built. I`ve never said great pull out with incredibly authority, but I flew my harrier 46 which was about 2.7 kilos with both the MVVS 49 and the XLS 52 and had absolutely no problems pulling out of hover, later I put in a 91 twostroke and that was incredible

. The major point here is that his engine is underperforming and we should try to find out why.
My profile was weighing in at exactly 2.4 kilos and was a rocket out of hover with my XLS 52 (let me add to that that I have broken 15K on the APC 12-4

). Lately I too have been mostly using wooden props for 3-D applications, so we agree there
All my 3-D planes now have more than 2-1 thrust-weight ratio ( someone said I was crazy to put my 180 fs in my Harrier 90, but it was just perfect

), but to just pull out of hover doesn`t call for that much power and that is what ALANXP is trying to acchieve, and he will once that West engine does what it is supposed to do
Oh, I forgot something, my MVVS pulls 4.3 kilos on a digit fish scale and the XLS is a little stronger (in case that is what made you WHAT! my previous post) I have modded my engines and I`m not saying his engine will produce such numbers, but to climb a plane of about 2.5 kilos or a little more out of hover should be well within the reach of the West .50
