Hi Thayer
I'm flattered that you would consider making that long trek to the Great White
North :-).
As far as your project goes I would recomend the Straight Astro cobalt as the
FAI tries to draw to much power. I currently fly a semi scale Auster with a
AFC 40 geared that weighs 9 lbs and has 900 sq. inches. The Auster is quite
lively Loops and 45 degree upward rolls are possible. The 40 drives a 14 x 6
top flite power point prop at 7500 rpm.
Do you belong to the WWI mailing list, Allan Wright the list co-ordinator is
seriously contemplating the exact project you are starting and would probably
like hereing from you.
I'm forwarding a copy of this to Allan
