bottom painted

SPEED TAKEN IN HAND HELD RADAR

Okay, finally got some solid numbers for ya.
Tried 22 Bravo ones 24 Bravo Ones and ran one 24 B-1 in center. Here they are.

22b-1's
3000 27
3500 34
4000 38
4500 42
5000 50
5500 52
5900 55


24 B-1's
3000 29
3500 34
4000 43
4500 49**
5000 54 **
5200-5300 trimmed way out 58 mph


22 on outers 24 in center
3000 28
3500 36
4000 40
4500 44
5000 50
5600 Center and STBD 5800 Port 56



Should I know lower the center engine one hole ( prop shaft even with bottom), like you already told me too or should I try the 23 Rev 4's, or lab the 24's???? Are go to larger Mirage's????????

24 B-1s performance is sluggish at take off,
22's have strong acceleration all the way through but I am reving too much, 24 in center with 22's are difficult to keep even RPMS and the trim is very different with the three.


Thanks, Tony

With 12% slip, I'd like to work with the 24 B1's.

Call when you can and we'll go through the options (including the cnt engine).
