Default RE: 3blade for 110

Lets dig up an old horse here...

Installed the MAS 14x9 on the 110FZ on the H-9 Spit...

AWESOME...... max RPM is about 9350 static and then I back it off to 9K.

Power is STUPID for this plane... aceleration is rediculous, top speed is deangerous to the airframe (clocked at 75 mph) and vertical, while not unlimited, is very impressive!!

Having some issues with tuning... It runs like a raped ape at all areas except idle... won't idle for snot..

HOWEVER... It DID idle perfectly last week in the plane, on the stand while we were testing the motor (but before i had the cowling completed and the plane ready for flight.........) so, being that this is a new plane and i had to do some mods to it after the initial engine set-up... I'm beginning to think I sucked some dirt into the carb that i didn;t get cleaned out... Especially after i had to widen the slots in the cowling where the keleo scale exhuast exits...
