Title: Evo .60
Post by: Bill Little on February 15, 2014, 12:38:24 PM

Hi Guys, I have an Evo .60 (box stock) which I am going to use in a Modified Time Machine (used a fuselage drawing from Steve Buso).  Any suggestions on this set up?

Thanks
BIG Bear

Smallest Venturi, Regular 10% R/C fuel, (not GMA 11/11, these engine do not like castor oil) 11x5 prop for break-in, 12x5.5 RSM prop for flight. One extra head gasket.  Stock or PA NV. Hot plug. That will get you started. 8)

Hi, Bill, agree with Pete.  We also like to add another row of holes to the stock tongue muffler.  Pretty sweet running engine!

Consider trying a Xoar 13 x 6 prop as well.  That is my standard with a "porky" plane.  Launching at about 8200 with that set up works well for both of my Evos.
