Kwik, the oil in the crankcase is a good idea. But after several engine runs and 2 flights, there is oil coming out of the drain nipple. It takes an hour or so to get out, but it's there. Fred Culbertson suggests making the drain tube have a "loop" in it to keep the oil up in the crank case. It can still get out, but has a bit of travel to do first.
