RE: cox 24k .049

I'm really missing out on some nice 1/2 A explosions. All I have ever used in all my .049's is fuels like Omega 10%, running at 15,000RPM.:D

RE: Tuning By the Smoke Coming From the Pipe

Foxy , How about you set your HSN at 3 turns open and run a few tanks of fuel through and see what I mean. There is no car or boat engine with a flywheel that will survive for long at this setting.

RE: Traxxas trade in

The cylinder and piston have different part numbers. I have both engines and the liners are somewhat different in the port arrangements.

RE: McCoy .049 MK1

I have seen this, first hand. The crank pin is the first thing to go on these at high RPM. I like to prop them big.

RE: Cox .049 engines- old style

It has one, with the "reed stop". I really like it, but my Medallion .15 is a smoother "stutter free" runner. This Sportsman .15 has such a taper in the cylinder. It must have been made when the...

I am a Aircraft Structures tech in the Airforce and in the early 1980's we stopped using all sources of Beryllium copper. It was determined that when you machine it and over heat it, the smoke would...

RE: Cox .049 engines- old style
