FW: Re: ABBRA Page

[Michael Laggis]

I had a ZDZ 40 but it was in a Hangar 9 80inch Cap 232.  It came in at 
15.5lbs dry weight.  I ran both a Menz 22x8 (6800rpms) and a Bambula 20x10 
(6500rpm).  I actually liked the Bambula better.  It was quieter, and pulled 
better.  The ZDZ on a sub 11 lbs airframe will be incredible.  Absolute 
unlimited vertical.  Throttle management will definitely be the key.

Thanks
