Default Fuji BT-86 in IMAC? Anyone?

I was wondering if anyone is using a Fuji BT-86 in IMAC. If so, can you tell me what you think and what plane you are using it on?

Thanks

I flew a H9 Cap with a Fuji 86. Nice engine once it got running and a nice combo with the plane. We couldn't get it to hand-start to save our lives though. Attached to the starter it would fire up easily.

Default How about power vs. weight?

Did it have good power for all the weight?

Yes, the Capper is pretty light and the Fuji handled it well. It would pull out of a hover, not like a rocket but it was good. The cowling did have to be cut for a couple engine parts to stick out.

Default Cap

Sorry I didn't ask before... was that the 1/3 scale Cap?

About how much did she weigh?

Yes, it was the 33% Cap. I'm guessing the weight was 23-24 pounds, but never got an actual weight. The plane was lost due to radio interference a couple weeks ago, and the engine was destroyed with it.
