And here I thought you tested that 160 size motor of yours with a 20x10 prop on it lmao. Didn't watch the video since it's not you. Can't burn the bandwidth...
Sorry for the false alarm, Tony! No, the above video is not of me. Over the past 1.5 years that I've been around "flying rc", I've seen hundreds of videos that reall concern me. I really find it "super scary" to see videos of people revving up their bigger motors/engines, on planes, and they stand right in front of the 12" (and bigger) props. I often wonder, "Are you sure that you have that motor mounted
tight'" or "Are you sure that you have that prop mounted
tight?" Then I come across the above video and I just knew what was going to happen....why didn't this guy? He messes with the choke (or something) and get the engine running and.....yep...I was right. I am a psychic. So now I ask...."Did you learn your lesson?" I only hope that he did.
Check out the video when you get home, if you want to see an "idiot" at work.
As far as my engine test stand, I will probably start that build today. I will have to order the prop from some where online. I went to my LHS and the biggest prop they had was one 16" prop. I'll probably go look on A Main Hobbies.
