@@MarkRobinson555 I do have a question now that I have my pedal in front of me. Speaking about the adjustment screw, how far should it be in relation to the carbon rod? Mine had the usual issue of not wanting to spin the motor, then all of the sudden it comes to life deep into the pedal push. So I adjusted the screw in to about half way, and noticed it is still not making a connection to the carbon. Should it be touching the carbon? Or does it not matter? Thanks again

Yes, it ran lovely

Thank you very much, really appreciate the comment, glad you enjoyed the video. 😀

Thanks 👍

Thank you for the kind comment about the video, pleased you like it. The exhaust side of the cylinder will have carbon on it from the gasses, and the two ports will be of different sizes, the exhaust is often larger, but theses should line up correctly in size with the crankcase casting - hope that helps, good luck with getting the engine running again

The normal range is usually around 9 - 16,000 rpm, but the rpm is highly dependant on the fuel and prop used

Hi, thanks for the comment, yes it needed a new O ring, old one had gone stiff and brittle, in my mind its an easy win as they are cheap and easy to obtain, and can make a big difference.

Hi there Terry, good morning. Yes, it ran really lovely. Sure you could use your wifes cleaner, just dont leave it dirty!!!! hahahaha - good luck

Hi there thanks for the comment, I found with IC the more you use them and run them in test stands, playing with the tuning and reading about how to tune them, the more I learned, but also talking to people and finding someone, who's judgement you trust to talk to for advice. Good luck, they are great to use, I enjoy the IC side as much as the flying it's self.

Oliver. As Mark said. However, if you are in the market for one, get yourself a new engine, you can't go wrong with an OS or an Enya, ( my personal favourite make). I say new as you can follow makers instructions re fuel and prop size plus you know it's not on its way out.. Get one and enjoy!

Yes, same on all engines, its just a clevis on the end of a threaded rod, which is held loosely/ friction fit, on the wooden throttle control leaver. Its loose because there needs to be some movement as the wooden leaver moves through an arch, its not perfect, but works ok.

Sorry, fixed the link, thanks for letting me know it didn't work, Mark

Yes it is, works really well with no issues, lovely and solid

I would suggest that you find a model club close to where you live, and I am sure someone will be able to help and advise you local

I think it would probably benefit from a gasket, you could make one out of some heavy aluminium foil. However, if not loosing compression maybe you can get away without one

sorry I don't understand the question

Well I guess that is a how long is a piece of string question, I have certainly never worn one out, if treated right seem to run for ever, but life will depend on so many factors, like fuel mixture, % nitro and oil, prop size, hence how fast you run them, use of after run oil, correct cooling, ie not getting really hot in a cowl, the make and model of the engine and of the course the ultimate, driving them into the ground at high speed is a little detrimental! Hope that helps

@@MarkRobinson555 Thanks Mark, you are right and Mary Chrismas and a good Newyear.

Thank you, hope you have a good Christmas and New Year as well 😀
