Well I took the Arrow out for the second attempt. I was going down the runway and it seemed like it just didn't have enough power. Then somehow the nose gear went forward and we heard a loud pop. I aborted the takeoff but was not unable to taxi in due to the nose gear getting bent and then twisted. Some how the tire got forward enough for the prop to slice through it. That must have been the loud pop. Needless to say back to the drawing board. I think I'm going to park it for a little while, I'm tired of mess'n. I'm beginning to think that this OS .61 isn't the right engine for this size plane.
