Good to see Heman out again...

What's the power on the Pink Profile Phorce? I see the MACS muffler...good plan, if you can find the magic prop.

I think the power on the Purple People Eater is an OS AX25 with the RC carb wired open. It is a high RPM engine that fulls the Phorce well. I flew a different Phorce also with an AX25 that performed very well, no lack of power.

MAN April 1960 to be exact. Yes there are adjustable leadouts.

Instead of money, would you rather settle for a RO Jett .65  S?P S?P S?P S?P S?P S?P S?P S?P S?P

.....Instead of money, would you rather settle for a RO Jett .65?

Larry, Buttafucco Stunt Team

The first picture, DSC00248, is the new Buttafucco Stunt Team Official High Explosive Ro-Jett Detonator for new converts to PA. Patent pending.  Larry developed the basic detonator concept back in the 50s for the Fox .15 before discovering that they are wonderfully useful for purposes other than flying planes.    

Picture 254:  Larry to Mike:  "You can greatly increase the control effectiveness of the Serenity Now by installing flaps and elevators."

237:  What Lance Armstrong will look like in about 35 years on the right (Mike is a huge fan of Lance's).  Mike's very pretty Olympic on the left.

284:  For all the food that went down the hatch (flag shirt on the left), a *whole* lot more hot air came out (flag shirt on the right).

244:  The Purple People Eater sports an OS32FX with the carb wired part way open.  4.15 lap time according my watch with a 10 x THREE!!! prop, according to the owner, whose name I have forgotten.  MACS muffler worked well.  A couple years ago Eliott Scott came up with the idea of trying OS25FXs and then an OS35AX on Primary Forces with stock ARF wings and drastically lightened replacement fuze and tails.  Very nice planes when built light.
