engine choice??
 
my f-4 phantom is about half done i have a rossi-45 to put in it ,now i have a chance to pick up a webra-50 gt,, should i get the webra and use the rossi for another plane? what do you guys think is the best motor for the f-4? is the webra lighter,and what prop should i run? :D thanks

I assume you mean the Lanier ARF because you are talking 45 sized- if so:

This plane comes out nose heavy so the Webra would get my vote... I love the Rossi but it is heavier-

I run a YS-45 on a 10x7, the Webra or Rossi would pull those fine or 10x6- I tried a 9x9 but it no workie...maybe 9x7 or9x8?

Let me know if you have any questions about the build- I have many flights on mine and it is great!

yes, i have the lanier f-4 i got the webra-50 today and it seems to be alot lighter than my rossi,, what prop should i break it in on and after i have it broke in? im going with the webra-50 :) :) thanks guys Larry

hmm
 
Follow whatever Webra says on break-in...

I would think 10x7 or 10x8 for speed- I was gonna try a 9x8 since the 9x9 was just too much pitch-

Good luck,
james
