Default RE: 2 Stroke or 4 Stroke? Why?

ORIGINAL: Schpankme

Regarding 2 vs 4 cycle engine, are we talking Methanol or Petrol (gas) ?

If you intend to use Methanol, do you intend to use straight FAI Fuel (Zero Nitro) ?

If you decide to run the Methanol/Nitro combined fuel, what percent of Nitro will you be requiring (5, 10 , 20 , 30 %) ?

Will you be wanting to use a Fuel Pump or Regulator ?

Will you be wanting to use electronic ignition or glow plug or other ?

What type of Oil have you decided to use - Synthetic, Mineral, Castor, Blended, POA/PAG (Ester) ?

Have you investigated your options for the type of Header and Tuned Pipe to use ?

Have you decided on the type of Engine Mount, and will you be needing a Nose Ring ?

Do you fancy planes with Cowls or Cowl-less ?


Should we discuss Electric as an alternative fuel [sm=drowning.gif]
