| Re: PAU 27% Bulldog
Just got my complete Bulldog graphics package from Aero Graphix and it is an AMAZING set! Top quality and easy to apply! It definately added that "finishing" touch to my Bulldog! BTW, I got about 5 flights on her on Saturday, and I am loving this plane! It drew lots of nice comments from the field. I can't wait to get back out and fly again and get some more flying pics! John???? hehe Manny, how's your build coming? You've been awfully quiet lately! Last edited by astrohog; 10-30-2009 at 01:07 AM. Reason: spelling |

| Re: PAU 27% Bulldog
I had an AW Pitts a few years ago, and with the DA50 it was a little sluggish (19 pounds with smoke system). I installed a 3W 55CS.. .completely different airplane! I had to build a baffle inside the cowl to keep the cylinder cool, but after that it was hands-off. The motor did idle very rough until I got 4 gallons or so through it. I have to admit, I'm not really a 3W fan, mostly because of the break-in time required, but they do make an impressive motor. |

| Re: PAU 27% Bulldog
how did this become a 3w ad? This bird has a DA50 in it and has alot of power, always run, always run right. I have not flown the bulldog, but the oracle was not underpowered at all and they are about the same size.

| Re: PAU 27% Bulldog
Not trying to stat a motor preference contest, just responding to an earlier post. The PAU plane, according to the specs will be significantly lighter than my AW plane was, and I agree, a DA50 should be plenty of power if the specs are accurate. | ||||||||||||||||||

| Re: PAU 27% Bulldog
I saw it fly on the DA50. No issues at all. Just like the PAU Su-26 though it would nice to see some other motors pull the plane around. On that one we've seen DA50, 3W55, DL50, DLE55, XYZ50, MT57 and that was all at just one field. And now we have a gent bringing in a Zenoh on the plane as well. Always good to see how planes perform on different engines and at different weights.

| Re: PAU 27% Bulldog
Yes it does; the new Bulldog/Challenger is surprisingly light. Shouldn't have any problems with any of the 50cc range engines. Those graphics that Jeff put on his plane are off the hook!
