We snuck in one flight with my Voodoo before the rain hit us. The engine I am using is an ebay special, clean 1962 Fox .36 engine but really didn't know how well it would run. After switching to a hotter McCoy plug, 25% nitro with all castor oil, running off a bladder tank, it fired up. Set the needle plenty rich for the first run and after two minutes in flight the engine loosened up and picked up speed a good pace. However after making my first large loop I started feeling static around the handle and could hear some popping. I moved my hand to a different position and started flying level and low. Maybe the Voodoo was on me!
Once out of fuel the plane had a very nice glide and floated along very nicely. We got every thing loaded up in the Jeep before the rain. We will try it again in a couple of weeks.
