This time we've got the upgraded engine and the new cage to test. Unfortunately the engine gave us no more than 8330rpm which equates to about 4hp and only 28kg thrust according to the prop data sheet?!?!?!? The engine is suppose to provide around 6hp......... I've contacted the supplier for advice. Also, we didn't use super-unleaded and the petrol had sat in the can for several weeks prior to mixing so the octane rating could be a factor. Maybe the new engine is still 'tight' and might need more 'running in'.
