RE: SPE 43
I fitted a G62 in a plane designed for a 1.60 two stroke glow. The plane came in at a weight of 15.9lbs instead of the advertised 13. Am I tip stalling....nope. Do I respect the airframes limits...of course. The wing area easily supports the AUW with my engine choice, and it is up to me to power it appropriately throughout the flight. Can those of you having problems tip stalling, and blaming it on the powerplant up front, please post the wing area and AUW of the planes in question? Not the advertised weight, but your measured weight of the plane. A wings design will come into play as well, remember some of the older CAP models?....they could high speed snap in a turn, had nothing to do with the engine, or even being overweight, it was an acknowledged limitation of the design at the time.
