Last I checked was 6600 on a Mejzlik 28x10, which I hear loads the engine about the same as the 27x10.

Thanks, thats about where I thought I should be with the motor. Kind of strange my friends DA with about 40 gallons only turns his mejzlik 27x10 at like 5900-6000.

DA-100 w/ just over 4 gallons thru it. Using a Menzs 27X10 from the start. Using Lawn boy ashless @ 32:1. 6400-6500 RPM. 1100-1200 idle. Standard mufflers. Simply awesome.

Tried a new prop and like it! Prince P-Tip 27x10, getting 6280, and its a fat prop.

PS, FYI, ran again today, 6300 constant hot, pulled the prop and put on friends 3W 106 with about 12-15 gallons through motor, his turned it at 6000 even.

Bambula 26x10, 6900 rpm, 4500 ft elevation. The engine has around 15 gallons through it.

I don't mean to interupt this thread, but where did you get your Prince prop at flyinrazrback???

Thanks,

how does it pull? Like it?

RE: DA 100
 
It pulls like a tractor, and very managable and smooth, worth the $$ to me. Dont think I will buy another menz, mejzlik, etc for 3D. If you fly just 3D, its the prop for you, but if you fly other too maybe a menz or mejzlik is a better choice. I was just happy that my DA would out turn a 106 with the same prop :D

RE: DA 100
 
yours aint the only one..


Im glad that prop rocks, maybe I need one for the DA150 going in my 3.3m yak!

RE: DA 100
 
I hear the 31x11 is the bomb prop for the 150 for 3D, ask around. You figure the prop is $245, but its a 6K airplane right?

RE: DA 100
 
Oh really? good to know!

Yeah, at least that:D

RE: DA 100
 
Anybody has any info on how many rpm the DA 100 swings the Fuchs 28x10 ? That is the combo I want to use on my new Yak.
I know (from my Carden) that the DA 100 (new out of box) swings the Biela 27x10 about at 6250 rpm at sea level. Not too shabby ;)

flyinrazrback 06-15-2004 05:09 PM

RE: DA 100
 
Not sure about the 28x10, but my DA in my comp arf extra swings the fuchs 27x10 at 6400, its a decent load for the 100, I would suspect about 6100 or so with the 28x10

Texas 3D 06-16-2004 11:57 AM

RE: DA 100
 
well, with the canister mufflers it should be OK then on the 28x10.
How do you like the Fuchs prop on the DA ?

I am using the standard mufflers. If you plan on flying the yak for 3D I would go with the 27x10 and the extra rpms, since the yak will probably be 26lbs+, but if you just plan on sequence flying, the 28x10 is a good choice too. I like the fuchs prop ok. Its a good IMAC prop, but not so well for 3D. Would I buy another one? No. For 3D I really like the prince prop, and a menz, and IMAC I like the mejzliks. My katana does really well with a mejzlik 28x10 for IMAC.
