YS 140L

[Todd Schmidt]

Larry,  I don't own a Focus but know several who do.  The weight of yours seems to be real common from what I've heard.  As props go, I mainly use a 16x11 running Powermaster 20/20 fuel.  I have also run 15x12w on very windy day (30-40mph) but mostly 16x11 which gives me a good constant speed. RPMS,  should be in the low 8000s ( 8200 to 8300) on the ground.

Todd

  I forgot to mention...The plane weighs about 10lbs 11oz. How does this compare to other Foci out in the wild blue yonder?

    See ya,

      I just acquired a Focus with a low time 140L.

      The previous owner was using a 15x12W or 15x12...

      What is the preferred prop (Calm / Wind) for this plane/engine combo and what would be expected Prop and RPM for 15% and 25% fuel. I'm assuming that we prop for RPM as well as overall performance...Newbie question...<vbg>

      Is there a web sight that highlights various combo's like Ed's for the 2-Stroke?

      Thanks...
