The engine might run ok for most guys, but it is clearly lacking the quality and details of the competition. Like you say at the price point you expect the best! This kind of workmanship and service would be expected on a budget engine.

Je te remercie l'ami pour les informations sur ce moteur, j'attendais ça impatiemment 👍 J'ai commencé le modélisme en tout-terrain 1/8 nitro dans les années 80 & je suis toujours autant passionné, je possède actuellement une vingtaine de moteurs, je fais pas mal d'essai et le prochain sera certainement l'O.S. Speed B2104 où l'O.S. Speed B21 Davide Ongaro qui est basé sur le B2104 ( la différence se situe au niveau du vilebrequin qui comprend qu'une seule masse d'équilibrage en tungstène, un insert de bougie modifié et les diamètres des Venturi sont de respectivement 5.8mm & 6.3mm ). Je pense participer de nouveau à quelques courses open dans ma ligue en région parisienne 😉👍👌💯🔥

L'expérience Nova n'était pas très bonne pour moi, ce n'est pas dit que tous leurs moteurs sortent dans cet état mais moi j'en ai fini avec eux! J'ai deux OS, le spower b7tt et un ultimate, ces moteurs sont magnifiques, parfaits et extrêmement faciles à régler. Je serai bien curieux de voir la différence entre un OS signé Drake ou Ongaro et un OS de série, particulièrement au niveau du timing. Mais généralement ces moteurs coûtent très cher alors que tu peux acheter un Ultimate ou spower fait par OS pour moins de 399€, ce qui reste chero quand même 😅

@cyrilferretti5644 Жыл бұрын

@@TastyBRC Il n'y a pas de différences sensibles entre un OS Ongaro, un OS Ongaro World à culasse rabaissée bleue qui vient de sortir récemment, un OS Adam Drake ou Ronda Drake et un OS de série à proprement parler car il s'agit avant tout d'un grand coup de marketing qui s'appuie sur des top pilotes très connus pour vendre des moteurs seuls ou en combo à des prix stratosphériques sachant, et je te rejoins sur ce point, que tu trouves toutes les bases pour une bonne cinquantaine d'Euros de moins & de qualité égale puisque fabriqué eux aussi à l'usine d'Osaka...! À titre indicatif & personnel je peux toucher un Ultimate M3S à 280 Euros et vu la qualité du berlingot, c'est loin d'être chero 😉😅 Les moulins utilisés par les top pilotes lors des compétitions ne sont pas identiques aux pilotes lambda loin de là, ils sont sélectionnés rigoureusement et possèdent un appairage parfait de tout l'ensemble mobile et peuvent bénéficier d'un petit travail d'optimisation sur les transferts latéraux pour ne pas trop perdre en crédibilité... J'étais pro Nova par le passé et un ami de mon club a cassé la bielle de son Nova engines b5r après 5 litres de bons et loyaux services... Pour moi aussi c'est terminé et il me reste mes anciens Novarossi. Je te souhaite un bon week-end. Au plaisir.

@TastyBRC Жыл бұрын

De bonnes infos! J'étais très tenté par un m3S à 350 avec ligne (330 sans) de très bon prix je trouve, 280!! c'est top, imbattable. J'étais fan de Novarossi aussi, j'en ai quelques uns, un peu trop même, mais avant qu'ils ne fassent faillite j'avais acheté un p5 et un Ultimate M5 (l'ancien, sur base Novarossi) aux enchères pour moins de 110euros pièce...de nous jours on ne trouve plus que du très bas de gamme, RTR pour ce prix là. Pour reprendre un des commentaires sur cette video, il ne faut pas oublier que ce n'est nullement Novarossi! Ils se servent de leur nom et de leur réputation pour se faire une place dans le milieu (et ça a marché jusqu'à présent), mais d'après mon expérience ils n'ont rien à voir avec Novarossi..Ce-ci dit, je suis peut-être un cas isolé, je laisse donc le doute dans la vidéo pusique je ne les juge que sur le seul et unique moteur nova engines que j'ai eu en main.

In my humble opinion the best pullstart engine ever made is the Picco rebel XL, i made a couple videos of cars with this engine and a review video too. Compared to my other pullstart engines (LRP 28, 32, hpi 4.6, force 32, hobao 28, 30..Novarossi 28) this one has the highest quality standards, based on a race engine (same block and materials as the picco p3tt) the rebel xl is great and my favorite pullstart engine!!! not the most powerful but a bit more powerful than the stock .28 though

The crankshaft of the VSB02 doesn’t have balance weight either and is a great engine. I think the piston is lightweight and the crankshaft does not need the extra weight. So they can achieve higher RPM

@TastyBRC Жыл бұрын

The VSB02 is a great motor! balance weights are are not necessary for an engine to run well but a high end feature. For the money, IMO, you can get a better engine than a B5R with or without balance weights, I would choose the vsb02 without hesitation over the b5R!!!

Hi Tasty B race report first 3 race's flame outs engine carb setting high speed about flush. Idle gap more than 1/2mm. 3rd needle about flush. We had to wind the low speed needle right in bit by bit as way to rich.The other club members with Nova are running OS plugs so I put a old P3 in and 4th race got 2nd place next race 3rd.And finals placed 3rd. First place went to a Nova B5R. We are all very happy and other club members have more new engines on the way. Run time B5R getting 7 1/2 min. I am getting 8 1/2 min with B3R Picco 2099 pipe. Engine temp at end of race 96 degrees. Having paint in the cooling head I think makes little difference. Our track is tight hard and fast love the engine VERY happy will get another and recommend our feed back has been sent to our supply to the factory about plugs and appear to be listening very carefully. Last thing it's overwhelming starting a new business in time in i hope there will more stuff like clutches, bells etc.

Try the REDS engines which are made in Italy and are something more than the Novarossi and perhaps even the Picco p3. I'm Italian and I must say that despite all these years that the Novarossi engine has been used by people in Italy these problems have not arisen. But I inform you of one thing that since they had temporarily closed the factory due to a change of ownership and because it was also bankrupt (i.e. from 2020-2021 and reopened in 2022) many things have changed when they returned such as: the logo/emblem, the projects the manufacture and coloring of the engines, the management of the factory, the use of non-inferior materials, the employees who work there have changed, the machine tools for the construction and therefore the processing of these engines have also changed. And that's why you found all those scratches inside the cylinder and on the piston skirt because the new machine tools that are of the latest generation and are numerically controlled that they have in the factory release and make those scratches on the finished piece, and it's a serious thing that they should put back in order it may be that the employees didn't notice it and that the machines make these scratches.

@TastyBRC Жыл бұрын

Reds engines look awsome and i think that the quality control is perfect, they are expensive engines but you get what you pay for! The new "Nova" company is as you said completely new and different, I can only judge them on the single engine that I bought, maybe it was a problem on this one and only engine but I am very disappointed with the handling of this problem, I would have hoped that they return a new double checked engine instead of sending the same damaged parts back to me. You may be right, their machines are making these scratches and they are unable to do better..

This is totally ridiculous!!! Pretending to manufacturer quality racing engines. That you got it like this back from Nova says it al. "piston and sleeve are fine, feel free to run it" 😂 so they don't even want to give you a quality flawless engine. It's € 380,- !!! I would deffinitely expect more then this for that money. I only pay € 55,- more for a FX engine. The quality difference is night and day.! I totally agree, there are many engines with better quality for less money. Your SPower looks really good 👌 I wonder how much a crank expands when it's heated. If a crank is this tight think the bearings wear out pretty quickly. This is sertainly not as it should be!!! That does look like rust on that crank. What a shame!!! Brand new engine 👎 You would assume that if you send something to the manufacturer and get it back, everything is in top condition. Guess not with Nova. What a joke!!! 👎👎👎

@TastyBRC Жыл бұрын

They claim that they are "obssesed by quality", I would never have imagined receiving a new engine in this condition, but even less that they send it back to me in the same condition after having checked it, knowing that the customer is unhappy and has reason to be, they don't care about the opinion of a single customer .. their sales must have been very good lately. Yes Kings the Spower is looking awsome!! at 199 i should have bought 3 of them 😆I think we will never see such a good deal again. But i you have 379.9 euros to spend you have a wide choice of excellent engines. Think you are right, when such a tight crank expands, that may put a lot of stress on the bearings. Anyways, it wont make your life easier as disassembling it will require quite some effort and seems to be risky for the bearings imo. Still not all those cranks are looking so thight from what ive seen in other videos.

Comparing the B3R with B5R race conditions performance wise. Both engines run with same fuel 25% same P3 plugs. B5R Nova pipe types ?.B3R 2099 pipe. Coming out of the corner to main straight if I am a bit slow in tight and the other racer has more speed I can catch him top speed much the same.The other racers think I am more dialed in with carb setings if I give it heaps 8 1/2 min . One 7 min race i forgot to refuel before I started the next one run out after 4min that's about 9min?. This is something the other guys are trying to get past 7 1/2 min they like the power but need more runtime. I love the confidence power when I need it and long run time. My clutch is the same as I use with all my other race engines B3R is the best of my 6 engines.New Zealand Champs 🏆 on this weekend up north I'm not going but will get feedback as a lot of Novas racing.
