Title: Webra 32
Post by: Bob Hudak on January 09, 2007, 04:22:35 PM

I have a Webra 32 that I plan on installing in a Smoothie ARF. I need to know the right fuel to feed it.I'm thinking PowerMaster 10/22.Would this be OK?

Yup....that will work.....I have seen stock Webras liking a 10X3 APC

Either 5% or 10% nitro and 20%-22% oil.  Mine likes Sig 5% - 22% 1/2 and 1/2.

Expect the Webra in stock trim to want to run fast, and I do not believe it will 4-2 with the stock set up.  I have a Webra 28 (the same one Bob Hunt had at first in his published Tucker Special) and a 32.  Both had had a *little* change to the timing, and a hemi job done to the head.

The Smoothie is relatively small, and the Webra will need a very low pitch prop to keep the lap times down.  The Webra is pretty strong, and that combo will not load it much at all.

The Webra has been set up for C/L Stunt.I know it had the timing changed but it looks like it has a stock head. I'll experiment with a couple different props to see what it likes. I'' start with a 10/4 then if its too fast I'll drop to a 10/3. I may even see if an 11/4 does magic to it.
