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 all the Red Bull Air Race planes have boxer engines.

I would have thought that the radials would have more engine torque,
thus pulling the planes around the course quicker.

I look forward to some expert input on this.

Superdoof.
