Plane size for MCcoy 098

getback wrote:I posted before that I had one of these / Well I ran it yesterday and was getting 12.000 rpm on a 7X4 top flite prop 25% sig fuel , It starts easy and I just kindy like the noise it makes ! So what plane would be a good subject for it ? ( stunt Cl of coarse )
 Thanks , Getback  

 

The only plane that pops up is Walt Hughes' "Little Missle". That plan shows the McCoy .098 in it.

The landing gear consists of a "belly wheel". Per OTS rules you can extend it to get ground clearance but it is supposed to be in the same position, I believe. The plane itself is a swept wing with twin rudders.  Tom Dixon has plans.

The baby clown I have the all American is in my Q The 23 is too small for this engine and I have one with a medallion on it , The Circus Prince don't sound right and $$$ I like the Rascal but I don't see the rib configuration so how do you know what to make the ribs size to?? I have seen this on a few models and just stay away cause I don't know ?? Would like to see the 99 Or I will go with the All American Eric Thanks U All !!

Roddie's reply came in while I was typing this and is spot on. Rascal rib pattern is shown below the right wing tip. All ribs are the same, trim W1 to fit 1/16" plank at wing root. You can eliminate the leadout holes for the right side wing ribs. Ribs are 1/16" sheet. Trailing edge is very simple, of 1/8" sheet balsa. You just round the back side and that's it.

If you can't download a copy, PM me and I'll E-mail it to you.

It features a built-up wing with laser-cut ribs and 1/2" fuse. Personally.. I think it's a bit small for a .25    but if you've got other .09's or .15's... it gives you some options for different power combos to mess with.

DON'T try to fly the Circus Prince with that McCoy 0.09.

It will be terribly underpowered; at least that's what I found when I tried to fly mine with the Fox "Rocket 0.09".

Installing the Fox "15" really woke this plane up (same mounting bolt pattern as the 0.09) and "PDQ" suggested that it would be a rocket with a 29.

But not an 0.09.

Eric, here's an engine test on your engine, also known as the 1950 Duromatic McCoy "9".

Doesn't give horsepower figures, but they got between 11,000 to 12,000 RPM depended on which 7x4 prop make and fuel used. Tests were done without proper break in.

The Debolt All American at 140 square inches wing area is a perfect match, as it lists the McCoy "9" on the plans.

I looked at the specs on the Circus Prince, it has 200 square inches wing area, wow! No wonder why it flies well on a Fox .15 That is the same wing area as my 30" wingspan Ringmaster Jr.  

I love the Outer-zone web site, i was on it last night for a while. I also agree with the All-American, cool little plane, classic design, would be an easy build and should fly great!

Thanks For the link Mark ....But I still cant get a download don't know why the others are no problem .

Eric, yesterday I E-mailed you the plan, plus PDF printout of the Outerzone description page and a tiled version for 8-1/2 x 11 paper. Did you receive it? - George

No I did not George , But my computer friend came by yesterday and got it for me , I tried scaling it this morn. and at 24" WS it is impossible to read and the lines are jacked real bad and I still need 2 more inches .                                                          Well it came out upside down but you can see and I think the center of wing is at #12 on the rule ??? Eric

Please check your E-mail's spam folder. It may be there.

Post Note: I re-sent the E-mail with this time only the All American plan attached. Previously I had a PDF printout of the Outerzone description page and a tiled printout for standard printer paper. Eric, please let me know if you received this, and please check your spam folder if you don't see it. Also, the plan on my computer is very clear, provides a very clear printout, so it looks like something may be borked on your computer. - George
