What would you suggest for a C/L venturi and nva? I would like to replace the RC. carb. Is there anywhere I may purchase a CL setup?
Stay well,

Just Engines in the UK used to offer C/L conversions for the engines they used to sell. There was one for a glow Irvine .40. Possibly a piece of the past now.

Otherwise about the only real NVA suitable is probably a large ENYA product. Available on ebay. You're probably on your own with the c/l venturi. That would have to be a custom item. Not many Irvine .40's diesels made it into control line models
The simplest solution is probably one of the no lathe suggestions offered in this thread on a UK c/l forum.
