<DIV><BR></DIV><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Hi Del,</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT
face=sans-serif size=2>I read your posts all the time. For me, "the
glass is 1/2 full." :). I think Electrics will definitely bring more
people towards pattern through out the AMA classes. Eventually more FAI
folks will go that way too. However, I also think the smaller gas
engines will make an entry. <A
href="http://www.escomposites.com">www.escomposites.com</A> is offering the
Abbra in either electric or gas layups. I can imagine how gas and
electric appeal to many people, who are DEFINITELY turned off by the glow
setups (2 or 4 cycle). Its never been cheaper to get into pattern with a
competitive setup, or for any size of plane/engine combination.</FONT>
<BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>I have a ZDZ 40RE I'm going to play with
(don't laugh). It will swing large props, and will hopefully offer the
reliability that ignition setups are supposed to be famous for. Anyway,
I'm looking towards "enjoying" trying the setup. I have a plane with a
lot of wing area that at this point, an extra pound in the conversion won't
hurt anything. It now incorporates a new ignition setup that is supposed
to have made for a very smooth engine in the low end. </FONT>
<BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Karl M.: FYI. The ZDZ 40RE
exhaust opening is a mm or 2 larger than the Webra 1.45/1.60. I would
not hesitate to run a Webra header on this engine. Bolt spacing is
identical, however, one size larger than for the Webra (10/32) I believe.

Many claimed it wasn't going to make that big of difference but it will
or else so many wouldn't be going through all the trouble of developing
electrics. No the sky isn't falling but it sure isn't going to bring a
bunch of new fliers to pattern either.</B></FONT> <BR><FONT
