Webra 1.60XP -Mixture

[Troy Newman]

The MC carbs are a Webra product and they are available from Horizon Hobby.

Currently it is my understanding they are out of stock.....But more are due
in with the motors.

The response to the MC carb has been so great that the product is sold out
for now....

They under estimated the MC carb success a little....But there are more
coming.

I spoke with the guy in charge of the engine at Horizon today....and the
word is the new motors are coming should be mid-late October...Only a few
motors are out and being tested now....Jerry Budd has had super success
running his. I think this will be a great addition to the pattern motor
choices....the MC carb works better than any EFI setup and is lighter with
less hassles. It is a very impressive setup even on an over 11lb airplane.
