The manuel on the engine call for 6500 to 7700 static rpm, at this time I get 6350. Just doesn't have the get-up-and-go I would like to have. What can I put on it to get the rpm's up around the 7500 range. Look forward to flying with you guys in the FFT, me and bunch of the guys from Lumberton club will be there. 910-734-7777

Come on Ronnie, I told you to settle everything go ahead and order a vess prop and try it. If that doesn't work I know the Mezlic will do it. But with wood you wouldn't have to worry about ripping out the firewall with those bouncy landings from the Eagle. You spending the weekend at the field, if so give me a call and I will see you there.

I know Larry kept finding out he was missing things that was preventing him from flying....so he said to hell with it and drove to QQ Aircraft and bought more! He's in business now!
