Turbos: real climb rates?
Il giorno marted́ 22 settembre 2015 16:15:10 UTC+2, Dave Walsh ha scritto:
(Also posted on u.r.a.s.) Any owners care to contribute? I don't own one but would be interested in knowing which models/engines are capable of climbing to self retrieve from the far side of a 9,000ft Alpine pass; so a climb from 6000' to 10,000'? Range and reliability comments also welcomed. Dave Walsh Hi Dave, all manufacturers declare climb rates around 1,2m/s but if you ask a table of rate of climb versus altitude you soon discover that turbo is not for you if you, like me, fly in the mountains. Those toys are mainly for flatlands where they make an excellent job (have you seen the new ASG29Es?). Also for this reason I decided for a selflaunching. Carlo Orsini
