Default RE: 3W-110 vs MVVS/Evolution 116

I have a Evolution 116 in a 32 pound 35% Hanger 9 260. It is a monster! Swings Mejzlik 27 x 12th 3 blade at 6300. That is a 2 inch longer 3 blade than is recommended for a DA100 and 300 more RPM. The first run on my 116 had 500 more RPM than the best 100 at my field using a Mekzlik 28 x 10 2 blade.

Don't discount the power of this engine. I have read posts that it is pulling around 38 pound 40% airplanes with ease and based on my experience I would have to believe it is true. It is a little heavy but it is a power house!
