Venus 11 for Moki 1.35
 
Hi All

I have a Moki 1.35 with a Pitts muffler. Trying to find the right plane. I am a sport flyer. Would the VenusIIbe a good plane for this engine. Thanks in advance, Dan

Probably not.

The Venus tends to come out nose heavy even with the recommended engines.

Most owners end up adding a few ounces of lead to the tail.

I think the Moki 1.35 would be too heavy. What is the all up weight with the muffler?

Thanks PC.

I think that you are right. The Moki weighs 8 ounces more than the OS 120, which a lot of them are using in the Venus 11.

I will look aroud for something else for the Moki.

Thanks for the reply, Dan
