RE: OS 160 Twin

I appreciate your reply. The tip of the glow plug broke off in the wire cap that comes from the remote glow plug unit. It did not break off in the engine.

Thanks for your efforts though.

RE: OS 160 Twin

Sorry to be late getting in on this. I have been running a FT 160 for several years on a 1/4 scale Spacewalker II. I ran it with onboard glow for most of the time until I had a minor accident (ie,...

I recently purchased a set of plans for a C-124 Globemaster II. The plan was drawn in 2007 by C. A. Marco of Grove City, OH. I have tried to contact Mr. Marco through RC Universe, but apparently his...

RE: GAS Saito

I have been following this thread since getting my FG36 about 18 months ago. I find it very interesting to read the various problems people have with these engines. I have had some minor problems...

RE: GAS Saito

Saito recommends a 18x6 for break in and the first few flights. I have found it's good to follow manufacturers recommendations.

Is that the one in Eureka Springs? I thought that was in Sept. Maybe it's another one. I am always interested in those kinds of meets. I have a flying buddy who also just completed a Spad XIII. He...

RE: GAS Saito

Sportflyer,

I have my FG-36 in a 1/4 scale BUSA Spad XIII. It weighs 22.6 Lbs. I haven't flown it yet, but I feel pretty good about it. The airplane should fly on the wing(s) and not on the...

RE: GAS Saito

I would almost bet that he meant Coleman Camping Fuel and not Kerosene. I find it hard to believe the engine would run on pure kerosene. Camping fuel is about $7 to $10 per gallon. It's more than...

RE: GAS Saito

I use Coleman Camping Fuel, ie. white gas. No additives. I also use the recommended Evolution synthetic oil at 20:1.

Runs good and clean.

RE: GAS Saito

Does anyone know what a good temp at the cylinder head near the valve covers would be, lets say running at about 6000 rpm?

RE: GAS Saito

I am aware that pulling out on the carb barrel will choke the engine, however I can find no reference to this in either the 2007 or the 2008 version of the manual. I also did not receive the magic...

RE: GAS Saito

Maddog,

As long as you have the valve covers off, check your valve clearance. I had to make a slight adjustment on mine after about 1 1/2 hours of run time. It wasn't real bad, but you never...

RE: GAS Saito

Kiosk,

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say the Saito engine didn't have a choke. I meant to say that it apparently was not easy to use.

Kiosk,

In the November 2008 issue of R/C Report, Dick Pettit does a review of the Saito FG36.
