ST 46 set ups
« on: March 05, 2006, 09:15:52 PM »
Hi all,

I will be using a ST 46 shortly.  It will be in a Lampione F-86 and I am hoping it will be 50 oz. or less.

What are your suggestions for prop, fuel, venturi size, etc. ?
Thanks!

Bolly  11.5 x 6.5  2  or  3 blade  works well

Bolly  12 x 6 n 3 blade

Rev up  11 x 5  work well
BYO 12 x 5 cut to  11 inches  works  good  too

One of the  new  Zinger  pro series   12 x 5  should  work  too

 If you have any, 11.5x6 rev up, 12x6rev up work well also. I was
always amazed that the Bolly 11.5x 6.5 3 blade worked, as it seemed like a lot of prop, but work it did. As my engines were set
up by others, mostly Randy, I just used the venturie they came with.

The  BOLLY  11.5 x 6.5   2 blade  and  11  1\4 x 6.5  3  blade  was  developed for use for  the Super Tiger 46  by  Les Bollenhagan  and  Brian Eather  many years  ago

Mine seem to like the Taipan 11-5.

I've had a good bit of luck with the ubiquitous Rev-Up 12x5.

I got a ton of those.  I had been using some AHM (English) 11 1/2 - 6 1/2 props.

Don't have any of the Bollys........yet.

Bill
The  weight  , drag , and  how easy / hard  the plane is to pull in the manouvers, plus other factors will determine  what prop-pitch you will  use

Be looking forward  to  seeing the F-86
