That is a lot of engine for this plane. Anyway, I have two of the VVRC 40 in other aircraft. I am running a 20x8 Xoar on both. It does very well with that prop. Incredible engine.

Eddie,

I understand what baffling does. Your quote says to slow down the airflow. I didn't say anything about swirling the air around in there either. You want the most continuous airflow going...

The best cooling efficiency is to have the most air travel over the engine as possible. You don't need to give the air a "chance to transfer the heat" by trying to slow the flow of it. You will get...

Does anyone have any opinion if the Saito FG-30b would be a good engine for this plane? Is the VVRC 40cc a little overkill for this plane? After seeing the VVRC setups, I think I might change my...

Alcuy-

How smooth does that 40 run? I was looking at one of these to put in a 1/3 Christen Eagle II and a 1/3 Pitts Special that I have.

Thanks for the info.

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

You would want a nice scale sound for this plane. I am putting in a Saito FG in mine. I wonder if the fg-21 will be enough. You would definitely have to add a bit of weight to get it to balance. It...

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

I built the E-flite version and you will be able to do the wing lights afterwards, but the rudder light might be a little tricky, but still could be done.

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

Now that we have some horizon guys here, I would like to ask what the smallest saito gasser that could work with this plane is? I know that the 30cc is recommended. Would the 21 work?

RE: New Hangar 9 1/4 Scale P 18 Super Cub

Yes, it is a four stroke. I already have the Saito fg-17 and fg-14b. They run smooth, sound great, and just sip the fuel. They are a bit expensive but I think they are worth it.
