NORVEL .074 POWERED CREATION ON 42 FOOT LINES
« on: October 20, 2020, 01:34:16 AM »
Going from memory..
2 oz tank
CC pressure
7 x 3 APC
Rectangular wing all balsa / combat type layout.
It really was a well balanced combo for all around fun.

Hi Jim..!
Yep they really hit a home run with the Norvel .074. I don't do a lot of model engine classified ad window shopping, but I have seen NIB .074s here and there.

My .074s. Nowhere near the rocket yours is...but I love that engine! Sadly, this one died last December, ruined the muffler mount area on one engine. The other may be alright.

What a great model..!
Coincidentally I've used .074s for a couple of Twin [RC] Projects.

Thanks, Mr. Dane,
I sure miss it...outboard flame-out on the upwind side just after clearing the wheels. It rolled in on me with a good wind under wing, and I had to consider "catch it or crash it." I dodged it and saved my hands for another day. The carnage is over on CEF or RCG (bigger pics).

Hi John...It looks like fun to all except for my Yellow Lab, Clara.  To her it looks dangerous and she doesn't approve.
