Anderson "Royal Spitfire" .065 Test Run
Yes...yet ANOTHER model airplane engine test.
You've been forewarned, so no whining allowed!
The spoils of last week's "Engine Sniping", this little Anderson Royal Spitfire (MAN, I love that name!) arrived yesterday, and went straight from the mail box to it's waiting test stand.

Nice steady run Kim , i like the look of his engines , have a couple one in particular i tried to get run a few times with no pleasure . Its one with the throttle adjust from carb and exh. flap . Its still mounted on a block of wood in my room here , the last time it appeared to have to much comp. and would backfire through the ehx. and kick back, this was after i wired the flaps open LOL
And 11,600 isnt bad on that bid a prop 6X4 woodie .

Thanks Eric !!!
Yeah, this may end up being my favorite for the Q-Tee. When I had it running in the shop, it's rich setting made it sound almost like a 4-stoke, and it seemed to make enough thrust to allow the Q-Tee to just "putter-bug" around the field.
I've been stalking a throttled Spitfire, but it's got some considerable damage, and the guy is sticking with his BIN price...so I may not bite on that one.
I'd like to acquire some 6-3 wood props (just like their looks), and have come up shy so far. I missed a swap meet last Saturday simply because I stayed up too late, watching "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" !!! Lazy Dummy!!!!
The Breezy Hill Flyers are meeting tonight, and one of our members is a prop carver, so there may be some whittlin' going on soon...might give me an excuse to buy a set of those fancy German carving knives!!!!
