RE: twin engine gasser
Looking very nice so far!
I assume that you will find a matching prop for you second engine...
... and that the engines have a very similar CC, RPM range, and HP (I hope they are both the same engine but by the looks of them, they arn't)
...Just my little $0.0002...
Did you test how well she floats?
Oh, and one last thing, when you're finished, we would all LOVE some videos[8D]

Oh Yeah!! I believe this will be the first twin gasser that I've seen.
Nice, keep up the good work!

And as he said above, keep up the good work!
PS, If I have assumed anything in my posts incorrectly, please correct me![sm=red_smile.gif]

RE: twin engine gasser
OK, thank you for clarifying.
Well, its been done before, though rarely, so it is possible. What are your hopes for top speed?
IMO, she should do 25-30 easily - though I am not really an expert on gassers (I'm all electric - it's cheaper!)
