RE: looking for speed model

I was the one that radared a revolver @ 114, that was with an OS ax55. My revolver radared @ 120 with an os 61fsr. The 61 is too heavy for this plane IMO. I'm switching to a webra speed 50, plan on...

RE: big engine, small plane

We clocked a revolver with an os 55ax on radar at 114mph, not sure of the prop used, I was pretty impressed so I bought one. I disagree about needing to be fully glassed to do 125. My scatcat clocked...

RE: Webra 40Q with Nelson ultrathrust short pipe

Bob, I ran the engine today with the new muffler,it turned 18,000 with the 8.75x7.5 and 19,000 with the 8.5x7. The plane is quite a bit faster with either prop,I'm guessing around 120. I plan to...

RE: .15 size planes

I learned to fly on an eaglet with an HB.15. It was probably underpowered but didn't seem so at the time.I recently completed a couple SIG Doubler II's and they are a blast to fly
