Default RE: YS-170CDI Flight Report

Ed- sounds like a good idea!!

ATUL, I used the regular 30% heli fuel, but forgot to "up" my AFR back to 100% for this prop. Still, at 7400'ish rpms, the power combination is amazing. I never would have thought that I could drop 1100 rpms and still be happy.
Thanks,

Alexandro - thanks for your note as well about the CDI and your battery thoughts. My decision to use A123's is also based on other guys running 50 cc, 100cc, and 150cc gas planes. There are quite a bit of guys running "plane" and "ignition" off of one battery.
Thanks,

Jim
