Default Rossi Mini Pipe broke down in the sky
Hi!

Prop (APC 12.25x3.75) was not balanced - Iīve never done so (dunno how to do it either)..... . Yep, I got her safe and sound back onto runway though the engine quited high (fortunately) in the sky and wind was + 16 knots. Noisy? YES, it has always been noisy except when it quits . I bought 2 years ago from Just Engines UK but havenīt had time for this motor due to my job at sea. So, I just canīt ask the Just Engines to replace it. Anyways, they were very fair at the JE and promised me to give a new Rossi minipipe at 1/2 price BUT I refused since I just DONīT like Rossi sht any longer (case is good but carbs and mini pipes sucks a lot.). Then they gave me a good offer for Genesis Throttle Pipe - and I took it then. If that Ī#%# Rossi still fails on me - Iīll go to buy a real plane !

Anyways, many thanks for your replies.

Brgrds, Peter.
