[NSRCA-discussion] Winter practice plane

[jonlowe at aol.com]

Yeah, I guess no one told David that this wasn't the Baillistic Pattern 
Association event, or that he forgot he wasn't flying his BVM jet!

You know, except for all of the planes lost (yours included), last 
weekend was almost too much fun.  Haven't enjoyed an event as much in 
awhile.

Hi Wayne,  All

 

I personally will be taking ‘electric-like’ comparisons to my glow 
setup out of the vocabulary for good!  For a while it has been a goal 
for few, and myself included, to try to get glow to perform in the same 
window as electric setups.  I’m damn glad to put that phase behind me.  
I do like the speed control offered by the 18.1x10.1 and the 15.75x10 3 
blades, but they have the “ballistic” option available when needed too 
– as attested to by the Tangerine contest.  While I don’t think I need 
to fly as fast as David Shulman (… who may still be apologizing the 
air-molecules the Australl was splitting apart), I’m not going to be 
flying “touchy-feely” stuff anymore either.  At this point I still 
think “medium” is a nice thought to have, but it was also pretty cool 
to see some “big” maneuvers flown again around the 180-200 mark again. 

 

Thanks,

Jim W.

The 18.5x9.5 APC should be a good prop also.  Dr Harrison is running 
one and he likes it.  The Mejlic is about 2.5 oz lighter and would spin 
up little better even if it did load the engine(O.S.1.40) more.  Had a 
very electric like transition on throttle and a very constant speed.  
Engine rpms did not seem to increase from 5/8 to full throttle but you 
had the power as you advanced the throttle in uplines.

Matt,


 


If you get a chance try the Mejlic 19x10 c.f. prop.  It worked OK on my 
OS 1.40... a bit on the loaded side but I bet the BEAST would turn it 
just fine.

Wayne, should be good, we'll see. Used to have an 18x10W Mejlik running 
on the W145. Engine had enough grunt to turn it ok.


 


Also will look at the 19.5x9.5. APC
