I think by reading the posts in here, you guys are fairly happy with the FT 160. I am not flying a Super Cub, but I try to find who is using the equipment that I want to use. I am putting my FT 160 in a Pica WACO YMF. Hopefully with as good results as I see in here.

Frank, I'll even leave in the receiver, just add your crystal. We could meet half way. Give it some thought I am not even advertising yet. I'm not sure what brand on the 40% yet.

Reading all the posts. Any word on the DP SC production or shipping? Is this just a dream question? I have the yellow regular SC on backorder.

Thanks,

Yeah, and I'm from Nashville originally, but y'all was acting like I was a carpetbagger. I ain't used to no such treatment.

Hey guy's, I have another OS 160 twin on my Rascal 110 and I'm having troubles with it dropping the right cylinder under half throttle. Then I have to bring it on down farther to light the plug with the onboard glow. It usually happens when I'm coming in for a touch & go and then when I go for the power, I'm on one cylinder. I can just barely maintain level flight on one.
Now, I kind of thought this was peculliar becuase my 300 twin hardly needs any on board glow except to start it (cowled in) and its using the same fuel.
Anybody have any idea's?

Thank's, Mark

Gentlemen,
I started this thread with the hopes we could pick each others brain during the project not pick on each other! PLEASE lets keep it about the cub. If bashing starts the moderator may pull the whole thread and we would lose some good information.

Stickbuilder...I'm not sure what comment you were looking for when no one got back to you but if it was about the FT160 it is a fantastic engine and good luck with your waco.
Thanks.

Bud

I would hate to see this thread lost. I also do not see any question in stickbuilders original post, thats why I didnt reply. It seemed to be more of a statement then a question? I have the 3w 24 in my cub and have no experience with the 160 twin, but am curious how it runs, stickbuilder let me know how you make out.

Actually, the OS FT 160 runs quite well. It is not a screaming powerhouse, but is a really nice, "Torquer" and thus the reason for selecting this engine for this WACO. I feel that all too often we tend to select an engine to fly a particular model outside the design limits of the original flight envelope (I have never seen a WACO or a Super Cub doing 3-D or other vertical manuvers). the engine is easy to start, and is fairly stingy with fuel.

This is the fourth one of these WACO's that I have built, and I actually have another kit on hand, and another two on the way. They are great flyers, and if you enjoy a more relaxed style of flying, you probably would enjoy it. I would say that you need high intermediate to experienced building skills to attempt this one.

Sorry about the Smart A** comeback, I was just trying to find out how the guys that are using this engine feel about it. This seems to be the engine of choice for the Super Cub. I like it a lot better than the 320 Pegasus that I also have, and I like it almost as much as the 300 twin. The 4 cyl. has a propensity to spit cylinders off the case and that is fairly hair raising. It does run smoothly though, and has a unique sound. It does not sound anywhere near like the Lycoming does though.

I'll watch my mouth (fingers) in the future.

Hi. I'm interested, if it's a full wing. Color does not matter as I actually was looking for an ARC.

Stickbuilder,
You didn't mention what waco kit you're building? I'm a huge fan of that aircraft.
