Hangar 9 1/4 scale Taylorcraft motor options?
I was going to put a 3W-24 on mine, but I abandoned the project after about a month since it was getting more and more difficult. Nearly impossible to get to the carb with the plane set up per the instruction manual. I actually sold the 24......bought a FPE 2.4. This is a perfect combo. I don't think the 24 would have been strong enough for my liking anyway.
I had a Saito 1.50 in the plane previously, which was a good combo. I decided to go with gas in all my planes......so out it came.
I'd say that the FPE is slightly stronger, but much faster with its 19x10 prop. Not unlimited vertical, but very close.
