[Thibault]

Hello !!!! I'm thibault, I'm french and Ihave an EDGE 540, his size is 1.6m and he has a FS-120S III ( four stroke engine). Can I do torque rolls ????

[GremlinX]

What is the weight? What propellor?

Welcome to flying giants by the way!

[analog_boy]

yes welcome, we are unable to tell you that unless you give us a weight.

If you're good you can torque a trainer,,,,

[Thibault]

Sorry, his weight is 3.6kg

I would say it depends on your elevation. An OS 120 should be able to torque roll that plane.

If anyone else has a comment, I did the conversion and it's about 8 lbs.

[Thibault]

Thanks for your coment, so If I anderstood, it depend on the height ?

[ben_beyer]

3D aerobatics are about thrust vs. weight in some cases like hovering and torque rolling. Your plane weighs about 8 lbs., so 8 lbs. = 3.6 kg if my math is correct.

[Thibault]

okay, thanks but how say, when I do torque at the top of the sky, my plane want to get down that is normal ? and I wonder if near the floor, It's the same. Is the power missing ? I don't know if my english is right

[crazyextra]

I don't think you have any power missing, it all depends on the propellor your using as well, you will want a large diameter prop, so you have some good thrust

my prop is a 13-8 ( 38-20) .Please, What's the sinification of the word "thrust", I don't find this word in my dictionnary !!
