The Subaru is heavy (260 lbs dry) and only gets about 72 hp, but it is reliable! Just turn the key and go! By changing the shape of the Radiator installation I have been able to gain around 12 mph, and around 200 fpm climb!
If you are not happy with the way your plane flies, try experimenting with cleaning it up! It really works!
