Webra Bragging

[Emory Schroeter]

Gerald,

Matt's set-up is probably the most quiet I have ever heard. It makes almost no noise when it's flying. I had a chance to fly his Alliance and the Webra is a very strong engine. If my Tigers ever fail me, I think that would be a good choice.

Emory.

  Mike,

  I have very little personal experience with big 2S engines, but I witnessed yours and Emory Schroters <sp> 2S equipped planes this weekend at Huntsville , and was truly impressed with the lack of "noise" these planes made. Truly amazing.

  I believe it is a combination of many things that it took to make these 2 planes this quiet, not just a good muffler, or just a soft mount, or any one thing. A combo of all is what seems to be the ticket. Hope to accomplish this myself with my new T2K soon as well.

  If Matt's is quieter than yours and Emory's, then it must truly be a extremely quiet setup. 

  I am assuming Matt is on the list,  Matt? What is the setup of motor, motor mount,header pipe,muffler ,fuel,prop you have found to be to your liking?


  Later,
  GW

    Ford, Chevy, OS, Webra, YS......

    If it works and you understand it and can make it perform for you, it's your engine. If you're having a bad experience, it's probably worth trying something else.

    The OS, Webra and the new DZ are all capable engines in the right hands. For instance I can't make an OS run bad to save my life, but the only 4 stroke I ever owned tore up 3 times in 4 weeks. So I'm a 2 stroke guy =P Plus is it just me, or are some of the 2 strokes unbelieveably quiet? Mine purrs, but Matt Kebabjian's is practically in stealth mode. Technology has come a long way.

    I for one am just glad we have REAL alternatives in engine selection.

        I *HAVE* to do this...  This past weekend was my first competiton use of the Webra 1.45 AAR "Redhead"....and my PastoMuff silencer....I think the guys I flew with would agree to two statements;
            1.  The Webra was flawless, performed perfectly and had TONS of power    and
            2.  The PastoMuff, during flight, was very DEFINITELY a quiet setup.  Had a bit of the Yamaha ring nnnna ningg on downlines, but I'll work on that.

        The Redhead was turnign the APC 17 x 12 Std. around 7800 on 15%....and worked JUST FINE!!!   A *most excellent* motor....

      Welcome to the land of WEBRA. It is an awsome, reliable, predictable, simple to set-up and run powerplant. I do think it makes for the quietest set-up around. 

      You will find the engine will turn a variety of different props at similar RPM's. It develops torque to burn.
