Hello, thank you for the great video of this old bird. I have one unbuild, but now i will bring it to the air and do some modifications like you do. Do you know were the right cg is? Ciao

Hi there, thanks for your comment! I pleased to hear you have one as well, they deserve to be roaming the skies. I'm sorry to say I do not know where the CG is exactly, and I do not have the manual. I recall seeing several forum posts about this bird in the past, I'm sure you'll be able to find some info when you search the forums. Good luck and blue skies!

Beautiful job of modifications Love the super chipmunk The saito forestroke Engines can be a little fussy getting them tuned right I know I have many of the Gasser 4 strokes ! Curious what oil you are running ? The man who designed these engines Says to only run klotz original technique plate at 15 to 1 Mixture And that is what we all run Otherwise you will starve the lower end of the engine of oil ! Great job in great airplane

Hi! First of all thanks a lot for taking the time to write a reaction. Thanks for the kind words, it's indeed a wonderful flying machine and I really enjoy flying it. I'm also only running Klotz oil, but I am running 20:1 and she normally runs very well, I think during the first flight I had it a bit to lean. Was also a very hot day and that may have contributed a bit to that setting from previous flight not being perfect. Have a great day, sir!
