I am a great fan of the Patty Wagstaff extra 300, from Great Planes..

But will it fly with a YS140 ?? It does not have to do "prophanging" just good flying

Or does someone now an 300s ARF for this engine, (with a Patty Wagstaff design ??)

Thanks, and greetings from Holland !!

Or better: Which 4 stroke glow engine can I use on the Patty from GP ??

IT WILL FLY ON THE 140 YOU HAVE BUT NOT TO MUCH FUN WITH THAT SMALL A ENGINE ON IT . IF YOU WANT A CHEAP BUT VERY VERY GOOD RUNNING ENGINE LOOK AT MDS 2.18 . I RUN 2 OF THEM NEVER HAD A DEAD STICK . A FRIEND HAS A FUGI 50[:'(] ON HIS IT WILL ALMOST HOVER IT . I RUN A ZDZ 60 ON MINE GREAT COMBO. THE MAIN PROBLEM WITH RUNNING A SMALL ENGINE ON THE PLANE IS THE CG. WITH A DA 50 YOU HAVE TO RUN A PULL PULL ON THE RUDDER . AND I WOULD SAY WITH THE 140 2 POUNDS OF LEAD ON THE BOX. IF YOU HAVE TO HAVE A FOUR STROKE OS 300 OR SATIO 300 BOTH $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $

If you fly that plane with a YS140 and an 18x6 propeller, your vertical will be almost unlimited. You will love that combination unless you are going to do 3D maneuvers.

Yep - I converted mine BACK to glow - with an OS 1.60. Probably very similar power to the YS, and it flies terrifically! Won't hover, but I don't, so no loss. Flies very realistically, and have NO balance issues. OF course, I mounted a pull pull rudder setup, otherwise box stock. Works just fine.
The YS 140 will be lighter than the OS because of the muffler/mount situation...so you may have to add some box lead...but maybe not.

So bob, what plane did you put that engine in?

The Taurus went down the road, and funded TWO OS 1.60's, with exhaust systems, plus the regulator for the pattern setup.

They use BME 50 Gassers here on them
