Totally stoked!! Here's the video! Sorry for the wind - was blowing really hard!

Very nice Trevor!

I will now order some ignitions as well, although mine is a lot simpler setup than yours.

Anyone have an extra dime?

Just a little update on the MVVS190!! I've got about 35L through this motor on my Carden 126" 260 and it has so far performed flawlessly. It has taken a looooong time to break in and has been a bit of a challenge chasing the tune as the breakin process happened. But it continues to get stronger and stronger

Last night, I got in 3 more flights after a slight tweak to the low end needles and I was blown away even more... Best it has even run.

Pretty confident to say that this MVVS190/smoothpipe combo outperforms the 3w220cs/ks pipe combo.

WOW, incredible Trevor. I'd say it's the best running quad I've ever heard.

Seems it has tremendous power as well.

I'd hoped to get the 175 running but it's looking like a next year thing.

Sweet flying as well!!!

Something so, so sweet to the quads. However Dale... The ZDZ180 will always have a very special place in my heart. Stick to your guns and keep on the 180 path... a dynamite motor at 1/2 the cost of this beast.

Thank-you Trevor. I read this thread complete last eve. Yes, best stick to "The Plan"

I do have the headers/pipes coming for the 180 already.

Nice work Gentlemen.

Now, a used ZDZ 180 is going to make it's way to Camrose.
Add, my ZDZ 160 is a dream of an engine.

Trevor best wishes on you decision to sell the 190.

Yes Dale!!! Snap up that ZDZ180 / Suhkoi and enjoy!! The 180 is still the strongest twin of the class by far and even gives most of the big displacement quads a run!!

Well... I was finding the MVVS190 was just too strong for my 42lb Carden. Regardless of the 2-blade (30x13W to 34x12) it would rip above 1/2 throttle and just too much torque on the low end making it tough to get a really smooth hover. A tough problem to have LOL. But made it tricky on the down low stuff.

So for kicks I put on a Mej 28.5x12 3-blade. The prop is too small and not extracting full thrust but it's the perfect combo!!! I'm sure this would spin a 31" or 32" prop, but there's just enough slip to make it the best feeling prop I've tried so far.

Here's video Brad shot today. I love the howl

According to the telem, static rpm was 6820rpm and unloaded I got a max rpm of 7650rpm, LOL

Wicked response. Do you still have a 30" coming?

[TBrum]

No I don't. Debating if I should get a 30" or just stick with this one. I'll likely put some more time on this one and see. Tough to mess with a good thing
