    You might want to let us know what engine you are running?? If I had to guess looking at your RPMs I would say you are running a 150 or less and that the 24P prop is to much.. Just a hunch... Without...

  13. Mark should I go for the Tempest or Tempest plus?...

    Mark should I go for the Tempest or Tempest plus? Also what initial plug setup would you suggest for a plus?? Right now with my 26 Chopper I can get up on plane in about 3-5 seconds..
