Hey guys I just....''Acquired'' an OS 40 four stroke and was wondering what to build for it. I was thinking about the Pen Knife but I have already had on of those. Any suggestions?


PaulSwanny, How much difference is there betwix the Pen Knife and your Taco?.......................John

Default SAME ENGINE HERE

Believe it or not. I installed mine in a GP 40 size cub. It took-off respectively and flew great. Great combo for scale type flight. I have other planes for other types of flying. So I didn't even consider trying to make it into one of those prop hanger's . Buz^

John,
Matchlessaero has a profile he designed called, the Folkerts Jupiter Profile.

John,
BTW I think with all the redesigning you've done with the Knife.
I think it's about time you think about designing your own profile!!! :thumbup:

I'm sure you would do a great job!!

kamlooper mentioned the spinsation. A 40 four stroke would be enough power for that?

Mine flew great on a .25 2 stroke. The Spinsation is very light and can handle up to a .50. It is comparable to the Pen Knife for size/weight so it should work.
