RE: Converting RC engines to Control Line

Dave,

Try

http://www.clstunt.com/

for Stuka Stunt Works. Click in the link on that main page entitled "More Products" to find pricing information as well as what venturis annd NVA's are available from that source.

I, too, have purchased from Leonard and have had excellent service and product.

Have fun with the conversions. The Tower Hobbies .40 (OS FP .40 clone. Parts are interchangeable.), in my experience makes a good sport/stunt engine, but unless modifications are made to the deck height it only works well when run in a rich two cycle with a lower than normally pitched prop (Try an APC 10.5×4.). That engine will not do a traditional 4-2-4 run well unless so modified. I have no experience with the ST .40, but in all likelihood, if you run it the same way, i.e., two cycle/low pitch, it will work out as well.

Good luck!!.
