Default Thanks, bill....

....it was kind of odd....seein' that darned thing pulling
to the right....I stared at it for a couple seconds in disbelief
before I cranked the left rudder....every plane I ever flown
that had "bocou" verticle...went left....

The Twin Star has a double offset in the motors...left
on the left....and right on the right. It's supposed to help
with the dead engine pull. But I would think that everything
being equal, and both props spinning counterclockwise....the worst thing that would happen....is the thing would pull straight....

There I go....thinking again.... :stupid:

You know....the first one went in after a dozen flights....
due to a soggy Futaba switch....I went double redundant
on thie one with Cermark switches....hopefully my luck will
be better on this one.....

Dave.
