Default RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

Flew my SAP180 powered 10.2 lb. Funtata125 today,great combo,unlimited vertical and excellent slow speed,I like to putt around at times and the Funtana had very little tendency to stall.The engine ran great,was easy to start and not real loud w/muffler inserts,in fact was noticeable less noisey than the DL50 w/canaster muffler that was flying today.After 30 min. running time there is a noticeable increase in compression over the very good new engine compression.The down side was I had the muffler start to loosen due to the gasket compressing.I wrecked Todds beautiful safety wiring job taking the muffler off to replace the gasket with hi-temp silicone.Did my best redoing the safety wire,pretty much hidden when in plane though.Looking forward to this weekend to get some more time on this engine.
