The I'm going out flying thread 2016

I just find good used ones and buy the parts a little at a time to make them new again It is the only way I can afford a 3W Once you have one, it is hard to run anything else. The 3W has grunt which is different than DA power, but both are power house engines! Have had both and would run either one any day of the week depending on my application.

Once upon a time I did run nothing but the DUBS. 85 twin 120 twin 150 twin 75 single. Hands down bad ass engines.
Went through my learning curve with them and only destroyed 3 cylinders! lol

Cool. How about the low needle? Just saying because if you fatten up the low a bit the high follows with that low needle setting.

Makes sense. I'm still learning about tuning a motor.

A radial would be AWESOME for sound and just flying around

I was thinking the same thing. Would be a little on the shy side for huckability. But cool sounding though. I'm leaning more towards the 129" 40% with a 3dub 210CS.

QQ Special Edition 102" Yak 54. My first Yak and it flies great! Nice and slow down lines and almost axial aileron rolls It has the gear from the Extra in it. That 106 CS is turning into a monster! I fly the whole Basic routine at about 2/3 throttle with no trouble at all.

I fly a blue head 3w-106 that is many years old. Awesome engine, just gets better with age.

The Weather finally broke, I'm broke and the A/C broken. Guess I better take advantage and go fly!
