Hi, I have noticed by watching the videos at http://www.fulldeflection.com , that the radial engines of the Sukhoi etc, allow more vertical penetration, but most Air Race planes have boxer or in-line engines. I would have thought that the radials would have more engine torque, thus pulling the planes around a course quicker. So, how does torque and/or power affect aircraft performance ?? I look forward to some expert input on this. Superdoof.[ Auf dieses Posting antworten ]
