Title: Line length?
Post by: Claudio Chacon on March 05, 2010, 03:47:38 PM
Hello Gents,
Which should be the correct line length for a Flite Streak carrying an OS 25 LA, for a beginner?

Thanks!
Claudio.

58' sounds good, however, pay attention to the performance at that length and lengthen or shorten as needed for best performance with the engine running in it's normal rich two stroke.

Thank you guys.
One more: you mean eyelet to eyelet or center fuse/center handle?

Yes the .012's will work. But, I have went back to .015 for a more solid feel.  Maybe it is just me, also 60 feet center of handle to center of plane.  I do fly a little faster too. H^^
