Phoniex Sukhoi
Hi All,
I was wondring if the Magnum 0.52 2S would be a good match for the Phoneix SU-31?
I'm not looking for a powerhouse, but something with decent perfomance.

TT Pro 46 wasn't enough at 4200 feet, infact it was pretty underpowered. I ended up with a ST 61 in it. The 52 will probably do well closer to sea level.

I ran mine with an Irvine 53, plenty of power with 12/6 prop too, just make sure you add the lead in the nose to get the c of g right if the engine is on the light side.
Nice plane.

If you were to check that 300+ page thread on this plane you will see many people who are happy with that plane on a 46 2C engine. Have fun!!!
