Good evening Gents,
I love my ?bullet? very much. And in many cases he punches above his weight. As my skill in formation aerobatics grows, and it pains me to say this, but as number two, I do not have the power required with my 0-320 150hp FP to keep up with the lead and others, RV8?s, especially in a climbing left turn at high DAlt. Never mind the loops.
So... I?m faced with a choice or decision, do I sell and outsource a share in a RV8 or do I keep bullet and upgrade the engine and prop and convert to a tail wheel.
I am leaning towards the later. Suggestions? Combinations of engine and prop?
Anyone been in a similar predicament? I?d appreciate any and all advice. I visit the website everyday, sometimes twice a day. Its great to read and learn what everyone has to say. Thanks in advance...
