The first test created more questions than answers and much work to do.  Here is my development log entry for the flight.

Can we assume this is the first flight of a Renesis by anyone?   

 

Did you do a static run-up?  Were you really getting 6200 static on the old engine? 

 

Good luck,

Rusty (flying rev-3 later- work permitting)

 

 

 

As far as I know it was a first. 

 

I never did a static rpm test with the C drive because the wheels skidded on the grass or the nose threatened to bury itself.  Climb RPM at 120 - 130 was about 6200 rpm.
