Default RE: Need Advice

Thanks VG. I know that dancers and figure skaters try to focus on a single point with every revolution which would be sort of dumb if you want to view the flying attitude of your aircraft. I think I get what you mean in that my periferal vision will kick in and I may not be looking directly at my aircraft but I'll know it's flying attitude regardless. Well OK with the throttle thing. By the time I get my new Enya .09 broken in and flown a few laps I will the break in my Enya SS.40BB for the Oriental and fly that. I'd rather smack-up my .09 than my .40 and Oriental. Besides the .09's Aluminum Brodak spinner is only $15.00 the .40's is $23.00. My break-in prop is a rather lite 10 x 5 initially. I might even try to fly with the 10 x 5. I think your recommendation of an 11 x 5/6 is a good one. I suspect the .40 will be a somewhat "hot" engine in that it has three transfer ports and is schnerle scavanged. I can't wait to fire it up on it's test stand. I know my neighbors are anxiously awaiting having the exhaust noise bounce off the sides of their house.

By the way I will not place the control lines on the outer holes of my handle as I stated before - I meant inner holes.

Thanks again VG and have a merry.
