RE: Revolver a speed plane?
[quote]ORIGINAL: cavandish My rev has a jet 90 Lx 11x8=147MPH with onboard gps straight and level. I flew in a 35 mph wind the other day, it is not relaxing, but this plane whoops it up, and can still be put down safely, that wind makes the downwind leg faaaast ! I have read on 'the' revolver forum on here, of a 12 cell elec revolver doing late 150's, personally I do not doubt this claim for a second.

RE: Rossi engine info?
hey man... Airframe is this the plane? well a GP Revolver... I have seen on youtube a guy with an electric motor doing 159MPH... without reinforcing, I mailed him to make sure... cause I needed to know if it could handle my target speed... [link=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NL_ZbFv0xFE]159MPH Revolver[/link] and one other thing... I like the muffler on the Rossi site better than the header with the side pipe... have you used the muffler before? I see its tuned for the same RPM's...

I wont be doing 20K I think... I am aiming for round 14.5K - 16K on ground and hopefully just around 17K in air... want to fly at least 120... or thats the aim...

RE: Rossi engine info?
I like your style... I have a R65 Rossi... one of their consultants instructed me to go with a 11x8 to get to 16K on ground... peak power is at 17K RPM... but like said before I will use carbon prop for most efficiency... have you got some specific prop which you like? I am using APC 11x8 at moment but I haven't tested it yet due to not having muffler yet...

RE: Rossi engine info?
my peak power is at 17K RPM... but thats not my worry... at what RPMS will the power drop and will I start losing speed?

RE: Rossi engine info?
I have the R65 Rossi engine... also looking at going fast... the manufacturers tell me that 11x7 or 11x8 will get me up to 16K RPM which is where the peak power lies but I want the RPM for speed... some have said that the engine will actually start to lose speed when getting too much revs... when does the power start dropping going beyond a certain RPM? cause If I can keep the RPM to around not more than 17.5K in air that shouldn't happen...
