First time I lied back in a lawn chair and 20 min into the glider flight I called for a br I was hooked. I think that was the flight I got 48 min on a 20 sec climb out.
Cool

What's funny is I had a faint rattle at certain rpms with the higher load props and I was thinking it was the CF baffles rattling, but could never track it down... Bet any money it was the arc'ing.

So all along this has been a 132.5cc boxer triple, LOL!!!
So the GP-176 could out pull the 190 then, hmm.

What say you Jack?

Nah it is just a pain in the ass. That and I just plain hate surgery. I won't be in for long but the recovery is a bit nasty and painful.

If it helps, I'm sure Jeff could do some building for you when he is up there during the week.

Re: The never ending engine thread, East-West

I might finally get a chance to build again when I get home from the hospital. Last year I was only supposed to be in overnight and I was in for 8 days. See what happens this time around. Hopefully this is the last time they have to go in.

Phil, might you make it to our spring Show & Shine. We might do a little Basic IMAC stuff. Just for fun, everyone.

LOL!! I guess! Looking at my Telem logs that cylinder was very erratic, but I chaulked it up to my sensor not being tight to the head. It was firing, but not all the time!

Hilarious!

If you want to know what pain is I have to have my a hole cut open and stuffed with packing so it can heal from the inside out.

Re: The never ending engine thread, East-West

3 cylinder = 3 blade.

Makes perfect sense.

The 4th cylinder is just for balance.
