I have a very old Webra .40 that suffered a ground collision. The Crankshaft was "straightened" by a very capable; but now defunct, not as consequence of his work, airline mechanic. I have started it about 3 times and seems to run well but I don't want to put it on an airplane until I have replaced the crankshaft.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to get this old engine a "new" crankshaft?

You can try here: http://www.webra-austria.at/

Shoot them a email with a model # and see what they come up with. Also give Horizon Hobbies a shot also.

ooooo

Try Horizon hobby in the USA or the North American Webra dealer/representative in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada.....his email address is [email protected] he is very helpful.....his name is Cliff Swartz. He replaced my crankshaft on a Webra Speed 1.20 in five days. Cleaned the engine etc etc and posted the engine back to me with an invoice of $60 Canadian. Now, that's service. He did have a spare crankshaft from another engine hence the cheap cost. He wants to keep Webra's in the air.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

MrMotor is the resident Webra expert on here. PM him with your question? You might try Paul's Model Supply in Fargo, ND?

Enjoy,
