"Some more ground-testing with the boost set to about 40". It delivers an awesome lot of power. Would be great fun to buy a tensiometer measure the static thrust."

"Another day with approx 1 hour ground running. Got up to about 4800rpms after the video shots that was the first one today with a propeller. Its a 68" warpdrive propeller only intended as a ground testing prop. Only som sanding and painting of the cowling left, putting the wings back on with new wingroot seals and she is more or less ready for to take to the skies."
