I used the Perry VP-30 and an APC  15-10 prop.

Thanks.  What prop are you using and what is the Perry Pump model number
that you are using?

I added ½ oz. It will depend how heavy your servos are. I used a different
fuel tank and moved it back to the wing tube to keep the CG constant. This
necessitated a Perry pump.

Jay,

 

Did you have to add weight to the tail to balance the plane?  If so, how
much weight did you add?

I use the stock muffler. The engine is mounted so that the muffler is at the
bottom of the fuse. This puts the head at appx 8 o’clock.

Jay, 

 

Are you using the stock muffler on the AX or something different?

Sound doesn’t win! Go with the AX – lots more power, more reliable. (I have
both – and a Venus)

Hi Flyers,

I am planning to build a Venus II. The OS 120AX is suggested and also O.S.
120 Surpass 4C. Any thoughts from the group on choice. I'll be flying
Sportsman. My buddy goofy Bob Wilson leans toward the 120AX. I am somewhat
partial to 4 strokes. I like that V-8 sound and low end torque.
