JUST FOR FUN ?
« on: July 15, 2006, 10:51:35 PM »
Should I do it or not. I can't make up my mind even though I like it. If I do it I will make it functional. What do you think??

 Done: Installed fiberglass tube thru fuse first and then installed scoop over it.

Hey, Greg,

Use it like Sparky said.  Run your uniflow vent up there, and you can hide it and still be able to fuel through it.

BTW:  where did you get the black Tornado 3 bld  ???  What size is it?  #^

Your 61 should be fine. Hot tip: This engine just LOVES the Stalker 12 x 6 three blade prop. Contact Kaz Minato to get some.

EDIT: I should mention that this prop is for non-piped motors. It specs out to about 12 x 5.5" and runs great with a muffled 61. I'm sure a Bolly has something equivalent.
Take care, Ron

The above answer came from another post, information provided by Ron King. I have to say that the prop looks a little strange in the picture do to the reflection off the carbon fiber. It is a Stalker Prop purchased from Kaz Minato (bluemax.minato@nifty.ne.jp) is his e-mail address. I sent him a e-mail requesting price etc. and he responded the same day and told me what my payment options were. It went smooth. Service was fast considering he is in Japan (about 4 days). I ordered thru his web site (http://homepage3.nifty.com/bluemax/) for $40.00). I can only speak about how the prop looks as I have yet to use one. I have used most of the prop brands available today but this one by Stalker takes the cake in terms of appearance. It is the most beautiful smooth finish I have ever seen. Anyone would be proud to have this on their plane. Ron says they work really good also. So I am excited to try it. I have a friend that has been using a Stalker 2 blade on his OS 40FP profile and it has the same finish and he claims excellent performance also. I have also seen it fly.

 Why not, go for it. I lost Kaz's webb site address will you post it.
 The prop works very well on S.T. 60's. Robin Sizemore has been using one for about 2+ years.
 Thanks
