Excelleron ST'd

[Ken Thompson III]

Someone on Bob's thread, on RCU, was talking about 8.5 lbs. AUW.

  I ordered my Christmas Excelleron last weekend, so I should get it by the 25th, so my wife can wrap it and really surprise me next Saturday morning. Debating on which engine to put in it. I have both, a YS 120NC, and the YS .91. I know, I know, you can never have TOO much power, so go with the 120!! Still have not convinced myself. If anyone out there is flying one now, let us know what weight to expect. That may make my decision for me. Over 7 1/2 LBS, and I'll definately go with the 120.

    Any more about the ST2300.  Looked at RC Universe, but how does it fly?  Any problems with the CG.

    My OS91FX is back to a stock carb but have gone with the OS update for the rear needle valve assembly.  It is the rear needle vavle assembly for the 65LA.  Mounted it on the fire wall.  Put the Utlra thrust muffle on it.  Seems to have picked at lot of RPMs.  You open the needle valve a whole turn when changing from the stock to the ultra thurst muffler.  Only test runs on the apartment patio and man it is really LOUD.  May be too load to use in pattern.

    Anyway, thinking of a belated Christmas gift to myself.  So what would be better on an Excelleron90 -  Tiger Shark 120, Magnum 120AR, thunder tiger 120, Webra 120, or Super Tigre 2300?

      Here's the thread on RCU with my latest efforts.  Have the ST2300 installed, broken in, and it is wonderful!!  Can't wait to fly her.  It all fit as if it was meant to be there!!!  Obviously, this is truly outstanding power for this airframe.
