I got the second one running. I installed a Wt-517 (11mm with a pump). It turns a 16x6 APC at 8500. That seems about optimum thrust wise. I got a basket case Hanger 9 F4U today, I think it will work out If I can rebuild the airplane. It is pretty rough.

Looks nice - Enjoy

Very nice work indeed. I got to stop looking at these conversions....I can get a kind od addiction to em! Capt,n

Good work, looks nice. The Stihl engines are high quality and powerful. Right up there with the Echo engines.

That reminds me...I have a Stihl chainsaw that is about 30cc. I would take the engineout of the saw & sell it maybe. PM me for more details. Capt,n
