Good afternoon all, before I start I know this question is as bad as the primer wars / but I'm a little unsure which one to go for. What I want is the most econimcal to run and maintain without being a pain to fly.
There is a guy I talk to a lot who is a LAME that has built 3 RV's. He tells me the difference between the two engines is very small in performance (from a flying perspective) but large from a cost of ownership / running. He tells from his experiance the 360 is far more maintance intensive than the 320.
Talking with the guys at Van on the build line they seem to concer with my LAME as far as these two engines are concerned. Please note I'm talking Fixed pitch only!
What are the comments from the group on this as it seems to me to make good sense to use a 320 if this is the case?
Thanks in advance.
