@MecosHeli I'm swinging an 11x6 Master Airscrew for plenty of bite and about 21000 RPM. It will do well over 130 mph but like I said I have to watch the pull-ups...I have already shredded an elevator from pulling up a little too steeply at half throttle...I was able to get it down with no prob. but it was a bit squirrely on the tuchdown...I have since reinforced my new stab so it can handle some more stress.

As seen in the video, I use the Futaba S3004. Been flying them for two seasons now without any problems.
Perfect fit and Very affordable at 13.99 each.

Wow, you got a .61 on the Escapade.. That must be balistic. What prop you spinning? I have a 12 x 6 on mine.

how do you think this plane would fly with the ARF float kit for .40 size planes with the .55 on it?

@whitetrashphatty
It would certainly have enough lifting power to get it in the air in short order. You may lose some sport performance like sustained balistic climing, but I dont think you would want to fly it in the same way with floats on anyway. If you do put floats on yours, be sure to make a vid. :)

Hi,
I "had" an escapade with a .55ax in it. Be careful, that is a lot of engine for that plane. My stabilizer broke in half coming out of a loop. I lost the plane. I got my engine and electronics back thankfully after 2 days of searching. It was a screamer though while it lasted :)

@kkarasz So far so good. This is now the second season with the .55AX onboard. I do take care not to overstress the airframe. I don't pull up hard at any time. I tend to fly it like an interceptor instead of a hard G turn fighter plane. I could see that pulling up hard at high speed could break up the airframe or pop the wings off. But I gota agree, the Escapade with a .55AX is a power house little flyer and remains my favorite plane at this time.
