The 1/2A Magician has 230 sq.in. wing. It is sized nicely for a .049, and a bit small for a .061. I flew Antone Kephart's new model Sunday. It has my most hopped-up AP Wasp on it. On 50' lines it was too fast, even with a 6x2 prop. He was burning 25% Nitro, so we guess the thing was doing 24K in the air. His "old" model has a pressureized Tee Dee .049 on it driving a 6x3 prop on 48' lines, and that combo works very well indeed.
My original model was slightly over 10 ounces, if I recall correctly. Antone's are around 9 ounces.
The Wasp in question has Jan's venturi at .125" diameter and an old Norvel pressure tap backplate. In addition the engine has been "flow relieved", that is, everything in the way of smooth airflow internally has been corrected to the best of my ability. (No changes to timing!) Beyond that, the crankpin was drilled out for better balance, and the crank polished to fit the case perfectly. (Unlike Cox, Norvel, VA, Brodak and others, the AP has a bronze bushed case, and you could actually lap the crank in safely). Break-in per the instructions, 40 minutes on 25% oil fuel (steel crank, bronze bushing, gotta do it right!)
On the high (for that engine) nitro, and long lines, it takes about 1-1/8 ounce to do the pattern. Antone plans to add a couple of more feet of line, and may go to a 3" pitch prop if needed to get the line tension back. He is trying to get to 4.5 second or longer lap times, and probably will be able to do so. Even at the just over 4 second laps, the model is a real pleasure to fly. He also can drop his oil % and go to 15% Nitro to cut the power a bit and get much better fuel economy.
