Back to Control Line
Many years ago I flew CL models, even my first motor was a TD. But now after 29 years I came back to CL and discovered that I love speed, so I started to investigate on the web how to obtain more RPM and more speed in my racer design.
Today I got the 22, 200 RPM with the Cox TD .051 and a 4X4 prop.
Cheers

Nice, have you done anything special to the engine? There are several ways to get some high revs out of the TD.

This is the motor and plane that I start to learn about high perfonrmance in speed flights. The video is the first stage of flights, with a Tornado 5 1/4 x 4 prop. The spray bar is from ACE that works great.

I share your pain, my wife and I lost a baby boy in infancy. Painful, and you have my condolences.
