A rough conversion factor for Tan II or SS is

width = 1.5 x density

where width is in inches, and density is in g per inch.

In Bill's case, the motor was 19.5" and 1.14g, which is .029 g/in or roughly 0.043" in width.

The rubber data is in a previous post. I don't measure the width of rubber. I go by weight per unit length. I can say for sure it is much larger than .032".

How thin do you strip the rubber, is it .032" or less, and how long is the loop? Thanks. Phedon.

That, and extreme care in building, lots of time diagnosing minute design flaws, finding excellent rubber (with a torque curve that works for your aircraft) and so on...
