<span style="font-size: larger">Hey you might want to reconsider using the PAW 35 instead of the 29 !! I have an all ball bearing PAW 35 that I mix up my own fuel. You will need the nose weight and the 35 will even run at a much lower RPM and still have alot of fun flying your Senior Kadet!! Progress Aero Works in England are pretty good at supplying replacement parts. I broke a needle valve assy. They sent one pronto. Have used Klotz oil and castor to mix up my home made fuel. John Deere starting fluid has alot of high grade either and makes good fuel. Also consider using fabric on your Kadetand spraying it with thinned epoxy. The kerosene will eat plastic covering right off your airframe. I love the smell of the diesel fuel!!! And you don't need an electric starter! Just prime it up and hand prop the PAW's. Have a little Russian .15 diesel that I converted to rc by adapting an Enya .09 carb. Works good on a motor glider. Again, a fiberglass fuse and fabric covered wings with an epoxy coating to ward off the kerosene residue.

Best regards,
Rockin' Daddy</span>
