and I'm thinking BIG... Condor big.

I believe it comes with the Hanson modified Zernoa260.... anyone has experience with it? I am particularly concerned about vibrations ofcourse as I intend to use it for AP.

and the exhaust, Torpedo V3 is recommended?

its just my very first gasser and I do not know if there are other equipment needed to operate a gasser?

I guess another quesiton is, what fuel (mixture? ) used for break-in and normal flight?


your comments are appreciated guys..

I broke mine in with 5 oz per gall & now use 3.2 oz per gal or 40:1 mix. You can run less oil but little power is gained!!;)

My understanding is that the 260 gains you nothing for AP work as it will vibrate more than a stock 230. Plus if you get the 230 modified (I sent mine it) then it will vibrate less than a stock motor and develop a bit more power just from the balance and truing of the motor/fan assembly.
