here is my Vendetta on 60% nitro and a 14x14 prop. this one only did 184.5 average here. Sorry about the blurry video. I had someone use my phones camera and I forgot to change the zoom to infinity. You can still see how fast it is on a low pitch prop. I later went with a 12x16 carbon prop and 40% nitro and did 196.2 on a two way average. the 12x16 wasnt enough prop. In fresno at the warbird championship race Richard and Marty both broke 200 mph. I burned up my engine with the 70% nitro lol richard was running a 13.5x13.5 prop repitched to 17 inches.

Where do you get that vendetta kit

I'd never shell out $600 for a DF engine - no worries there. I'll live with my modest collection of second hand example. I have many projects, but my list is hopefully short enough and realistic for this winter. I am currently distracted mutilating a Baby Birdie by converting it to an F2A speed .15. I have the Macchi fuselage filled and wet sanded, making the engine mount plate now (Al/ply), and need to cobble up a fixture to get it in straight once it's done.

Any idea whose electric retracts fit the Macchi well? I haven't checked yet, just curious if you know off the top of your head.

I am using the eflight 15-25 size in mine. with a short strut work just fine as the plane will be around 6.5 pounds with the 115 in it.

Oh cool.. and I was hoping .40 size would be good enough. I'll take a wing panel to the LHS and scope out the fit on the counter.

I have a .91 VR-DF and the OPS .80, but on this I decided to use the OPS. I'm told it is happy to run 22-23k all day and not eat parts in the process. Plus, the engine and the model speak the same language.

I just saw it. I not going to reno this weekend to much stuff to get ready for Phoenix race. I will hit you up when I come that way. Good to meet new people plus some times we go fly at the club near you I think. There is one near the city dump I think

Pylonracr

Kind of, you are thinking of the Carson City field, 30 miles south of Reno. Nice field, I have flown there. The Reno field is nice too, bring a plane and your AMA card and we will make noise. I have plenty of fuel and field stuff.
