I know huh? Last fall a friend of mine purchased a 38% GP Extra with a DLE 170 on it. I maidened it for him and man, my ears were bleeding by the time it was airborne. But this motor is amazingly quiet. Just a nice deep throaty growl. I don't think it is nearly as loud as some I've heard. And surprisingly, the prop is not loud either.
32x12 Biela. The 222 doesn't seem to care it's even there.Sweet sounding engine Rob....dang now I have to rethink my next set up. What prop size are you starting with 32-10?
Be CAREFUL! @stangflyer might try and get you to say Mahkhee....Mokheeeee.......Ya..that engine! lolI'm going to try and put one in my 1/3 UPF-7 conversion from an AMR YMF-5 kit. I was set on a big 250cc+ radial, but at less then 1/3 the cost the 222 v3 is the runner up!
Not the radial sound, but it's better then a 2 banger!
