NGH GT25 25cc, only test ran.

This engine is like new, it was only test ran. I bought it for a project I never got around to building. I have an NGH GT17 that I have been flying for four years and has over 300 flights on it and...

Interesting thought. Like I said, what is baffling that this only happens on some engines. A profile flier I know has two DLE 20's. One runs just perfect and the other has this running rich...

Yes, the engine is mounted horizontal in the profile. I think that most DLE 20's are either mounted upright or inverted, so this problem would only be noticeable when knife edging the one way when...

I have actually had three different carbs on it. I also want to note that this problem is while flying inverted at a low and mid-range RPM.

The engine originally had a DLE carb on it, which was...

DLE 20 on a profile runs rich flying inverted.

First of all, I really like my DLE 20. Easy starting, great power, and awesome spool up. But some of the DLE 20's mounted in a profile will run rich and lose RPM as soon as the plane goes...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Hi Saito guys,

One of my flying buddies had an usual thing happen last weekend that I never saw before. Two teeth broke off the cam gear on his Saito .82A.

Here are the details,

RE: maiden flight aileron question

A rudder trimmed left can cause this situation. Since the relationship between the ailerons and rudder has to be in balance, if you add some right rudder, then you will also need some left aileron...

Nice pics above. Are some of those first ones of the older OMP 65" YAK?

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Hobbsy,

I agree with you on the Wildcat fuel. I tried other brands, but was never totally satisfied and had problems. Since I started using Wildcat, I have been completely satisfied. One less...

W8YE,

I live pretty close to you. Can you PM me where you bought the Wildcat 18% Premium for $12/gal?

RE: OMP edge with saito 72 ?? Setup

I have both the V2 ARF and the current V3 ARF flying, and this is one great 3D plane! I tried a Saito .82 on my V3 and in my opinion, it was just to much motor. The throttle was too sensitive and...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

I put a new set of bearings in one of my faithful .72's and it seems to be runiing about 300 rpm below what I usually get. I double checked the valve lash and cam timing, tried a different "F" glow...

Thanks for the reply. I agree that this takes a little finesse. I have used the puller too, but this seems easier. I have only done on mid block engines. I thought this would be a good...
