[NSRCA-discussion] Was Mini Brio, Now Pattern Longitevity

Yes, there is a pipe and header available for the ZDZ 40.  The Abbra was originally design to fit the ZDZ 40.  You can get it from  http://www.escomposites.com/

To be exact, with the 140sport, the Insight was 9lbs. 11oz.  There is an ES pipe for the zdz...right?...that would be much less than a 10oz. quiet pipe.  In any case, it's nice that there are guys out there working on this.....just gives the whole pattern community more powerplant choices...

The new ZDZ40 F3A version looks nice.  It should be in the 43 oz range with ignition, plug, and all hardware so figure another 4 oz for battery and switch and 10 oz for a quiet pipe.  This leaves 7 lbs 7 oz for the rest of the airframe.  And an 11# plane with this much power on tap could fly a long time with an 8 - 10 oz tank over the cg. 

If Mark Hunt's Insight can weigh 9.5# with the YS 1.40, it just might make weight with this engine.

if you haven't heard, ZDZ is coming out with a new 40cc f3A engine this 
summer. this thing will turn as large of a prop as the electrics. The weight
increase over glow isn't even half as bad as electric. This alone could do
great things for us in crossing certain invisible barriers.
