Default RE: RCGF Engines

Hey All

Ok... guys running the engines are telling me this.... once the engine is broken-in (2 hours or so to give the rings time to seat). They are then changing over from 30:1 ashless oil to synthetic oil.
They are using BelRay SC1 at the recommended mix of 50:1.............

Now we pause for station identification
Our specs are stating 7100 using the 18*8 prop. That is the factory spec. They test and run using 90 octane 30:1 ashless oil. Period.....end stop.....The numbers stated are absolutely conservative, but they are the numbers and the only ones we are allowed to advertise as official.

Back to our show....

The fella's are reporting that they are getting around 7700+rpm.
I have not yet experienced a 26cc with a tuned pipe, and I for one am curious what the RCGF26cc would do with that strapped on. Plasticman... wanna talk?? Send me a PM.
