Frankly, I don't know. It's a gas engine with I guess something like 300
or 350hp. We can definitely slow down the engine when pulling the stick
hard back in a two seater. With a single seater, the winch driver must
winch with reduced power, but then the pilot has some control again,
slowing down the winch when pulling.
