Default RE: Water take off speed


ORIGINAL: rickburnout666

I said trainer, i mean its a trainer style design, made from corrugated plastic of sorts, weight is about 4.5lbs with the floats (not 8lb, my mistake) -3.5lb should help with the take off speed
ahh ok, its a spad. i would guess would be around 15mph depending on the size of the wing and the prop you are useing.
my 48in, 5.5lb spad will takeoff at about 18-20mph.
