Default RE: ASP/MAGNUM FS400AR Rebuild/Overhaul

Guys,

thanks for the kind words. Like the look as well.

did a quick try with the 400 because it should go on display at a local exibition between christmas and the 6th of Jan. but it is blowing from all cylinder heads. Compression is very bad. Small setback. I have to change the cylinder liners too. They are so corroded at the top that the cylinder heads can't keep them sealed.
I have ordered new ones from HK, they are 8 bucks a piece so not that bad. Will be 2013 before the engine runs. Exhibition will be static then.

Apart from that not very motivated for RC. The news we are getting from connecticut is simply devastating and thoughts about it keep going round in my head. I have two kids about that age and I cannot even begin to imagine what those parents are going through after those senseless and brutal events.

My heart and prayers go out to them.

Sorry for the OT.

Philipp
