Title: Veco .50 for a stunt engine?
Post by: frank mccune on June 30, 2017, 06:32:53 AM

      Hello All:

      A friend of mine has a Veco .50 that he can not get started.  He asked me to take a look at it to determine if I could get it running.  I researched this engine and found that it is low in power compared to more modern engines.  I imagine that it may be great in a Shark 45 or something similar.

       Any thoughts about using this engine?  I can see it capable of powering Stunt/Sport plane just for old times sake.

       Any thoughts/comments regarding this engine for Stunt/Sport use?

                                                                                                                             Tia,
