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)

Sorry, another question, but about the 10cc gas engine. Does the conrod for the 10cc gas engine have needle bearings on both ends? If so, would this rod be usable in the .61NX
so that it could be converted to gas with a gas carb and an ignition system? Thank you very much.
