RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

Very nice ! I've wanted a SD for many years now and I've settled on the 30%. I don't have the time to scratch build so I am researching kits. Maybe it's time I took the plunge. I'm thinking a twin 80.

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

I was just curious since the guy in post #2574 is using a 3W150 in the same size SD. Like we're talking 4 times the power, I must be missing something. :D

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

I have only read the last few pages of this post and your engine looks like a Quadra 42. Is that all you plan on powering it with? I have planes for a 30% SD down the road and would consider nothing...
