I really hate these dogfights, but ELTIGRE is not even close to reality.

In my early days, virtually all of my U/C stunt & scale models had inverted mounts, or horizontal mounts -- they started & ran just fine.

Currently I use both a TT.46 Pro & a GMS .76 in fully inverted mounts --- without a single hiccup or problem. I also have a TT .46 Pro in a 135 deg inverted mount that starts & runs perfectly. All of my other engine installations are 90 deg (horizontal mounts) -- I don't have even one vertical mount -- and they all run just tickety boo.

for what its worth, i flew the plane this weekend and the engine preforemed perfectly. no probs starting at all.

We are wrong and ELTIGRE is right, cos he said so. Even against all the post contry to his opinion. Maybe if we agree he will let us into his pram. It should be empty now he has thrown his teddy out [X(]
