Hi to all!
I am planning to convert my Hirobo Freya 90 into Gas.
I am from Argentina and here one galon of 15% nitro costs U$S40, its really killing me! I am wasting about U$S50 each time that I go to the field...
So...I have to select some things to start..
ENGINE
I was thinking to buy this from heliworld http://www.heli-world.com/detail.aspx?ID=8513 , I think that it is a good option (price/product), It seems to be a modified engine, somebody kwnos who mods them?
I am looking for an engine to have a performance like the ones that I have now with my OS 91 SX-H w/Pump.
The datasheet of this Zenoah says that it has 3.1 hp...so it has the same power of the OS, but I suppose that it is at lower rpm..here I have the first problem..
MUFFLER
I will use the Hatori that I have im my OS now, I now that is not the best, but its what I have now.
GEAR RATIO
I am thinking to use the 88T/13T from Century to get 1800 rpm in the main rotor at +/- 12000 rpm
Questions...
CLUTCH
Do you think that I can use the same that I am using now?
Suggestions about engine, gear ratio, other stuff????
I will post the advances
Thanks!
PS: sorry for my bad english :(
