Wow. Confidence of youth. Pretty sure of the electronics and his skills on a few of those low passes. Lol
Posting has gotten easier, but getting that quality of camera work was almost as impressive as the plane.
Great posts. Those R3 engines are amazing!

And all the while not understanding why their auto insurance is so high.

I thought the 60 sounds better than the 90, maybe it was just the taping

Ok finally got the radial into the Corsair. I must say I wish I have purchased radials way before this. This engine run as smooth as butter!!!! Enjoy a short clip of the first start up for me.

Perfect engine for that Corsair Rowdog. Either that or the FG60 R3. Very nice setup!

Still need to finish up a few things on the Corsair before it is ready, but sure will have a video up as soon as I get one. I finished up the C182 with the Saito 90ts this week and started on the C310 that will house two Saito 60t. All I can say is that C310 looks soo good from the front!!!! I only have a few more days of vacation and do not think I will get them all done by this weekend. Here are two pictures of the C182 and the C310. MAN I can not wait to hear the two 60t together!!!!

I heard from Pete, he really did buy a pallet of beer and he said there was 56 cartons on a pallet! I think he only bought that much knowing with all this virus stuff going on there was no way we could show up to help him drink it. He must have the healthiest kidneys in the southern hemisphere but his liver must really look like h*ll!

I saw an announcement of the release the new Blackstar 5 cylinder 250 cc gas radial engine. I thought turbines were expensive until I saw the phone number on this beast! My first thought was I can build several very nice Saito powered airplanes in my preferred size for that price. I guess the guys who buy those for the same reason some guys compensate for their shot comings by buying the biggest 4 X 4 pickup the can find?

You know the engine has a little power when you have to tie down the test stand!

Thanks Mike, choke clips received in fine shape, 7 of them. Now to make some velocity stacks for you. I think for a 125 and 100, maybe.

Birthday present not quite here yet.

Hmm, only $2200 for a B-29 engine. Imagine what can be done with one of those.
