    Great commentary, Tim! Especially the "that'll be enough of that" comment :-)

    Wow, 3hp and it's off the ground. Meanwhile, in the foreground, sits the beautiful 460hp DH.88 Comet Grosvenor House.

    If that thing was given a strong, lightweight electric motor it would have much better performance.

    The pilot took a dumb after the first run. That 2 lbs. made all the difference! :)

    390 cc and only 3 horse power, sounds like a thousand hour between rebuilds.

    How many "D" cell batterys to power that?

    If you dyno that engine I think you might even find the actual power is even less than 3hp...
