If everything goes as planned I will be purchasing an OS 40VF today for my first ever pipe set up. Is there a introductory set up for a first timmer ? or does this depend on the plane ? What all do I need ?
Venturi: what size
NVA: P/A or OS
Header: is there a standard one or does this depend on the plane also ?
Pipe:
Am I missing anything ?
Thanks
Hello
Common setup is 265 diameter venturie, PA needle valve assmebly or 60 size ST NVA
11.3 x 4.25 2 blade Bolly or 11 x4 3 blade bolly,
The 51 size pipe has great results, 17 3\4 to 18 inch lenght from glow plug to the first baffle ( or first reflective surface)
start with 10% nitro fuel 20% oil
and launch with the motor just on the verge of a 2 stroke on the ground, this should be right at 10,900 RPMs , the motor should go thru manouvers just 4-2 cycling without going sagging lean
depending on the drag and weight of the model you build you will need to adjust pitch to acheive the right airspeed
adjust nitro to get the right break-power in the manouvers
