cool video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but i thought it states in the rule book that for imaa comp. you have to have a min of six flights on airframe before its allowed in comp?????? I have a TF p-51 that i am building 84 1/5" wing span and i want to enter it into sport scale but it says the airframe needs six flights before allowed in comp.

Wasn't a competition flight - just a quick wringing out at a lunchtime slot!

Has it got the DA150 or something else in it? on full length pipes or cannisters? Certainly seems to throttle well and have awesome power to weight.

Great flying Mark! I hope they bring the 260 down to 2.6 someday. What engine? Sounds great, is it on cans?

Thats why i asked, sounds like full length pipes to me, a bit too awesome for cans.

Running Zimmerman cans - tend to throttle better. We went way down on prop size - Biela 30x10 - rips nicely

Yep, DA150. Brand new motor too so plenty more to give!!

I'm running a Biela30x10 on my Sala DA150, was on large JMB cans, now either on MTW90 cans or KS1080 pipes, will decide when I get new wings for my Yak, which should happen this week. Yes, that little Biela prop is light and stiff and spins up very fast, I love the response with these smaller props. I can do the Pogo stick when hovering with my Yak, and it just shoots out, since the engine doesn't need any airspeed to unwind.
