Default RE: New Evolution Engines!! 15GX, 20GX, 33GX


ORIGINAL: spaceworm

I have several Evolution glow engines and like them very much. Do the gas engines have bushings in the con rod ends? What percent oil do they need in the gas mix? What is the current draw on their ECDIU?




Thanks.

All the engines have needle bearings on the bottom of the conrods. The 15,20 & 33cc need 25:1 oil for break-in and then can go to 32:1 after that. The ignition draws about 450 may at wide open throttle. Any battery between 4.8 and 8.4 volt is usable without any regulator (2S LiPo ready)
