Stihl 20cc exceeds expectations
 
1 Attachment(s)
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.

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
