Thanks for the support guys. One more question: Once I remove the rust, what should I be coating the engine parts with during the rebuild stage?
ro347......i told you everybody would chime in here after they were done ''power napping'' from eating all that good turkey stuff......by the way, a q-tip work's good, so does an epoxy brush, i use the epoxy method, the bristle's get in to those crevises pretty good.....when i reassemble my motor, i sometimes use 3-in-one oil, because my other hobby is boat upholstery, i alway's tend to have some 3-in-one laying around, i use the 3-in-one to lube my commercial sewing machine,too.....good luck with the motor.....KOOLKRABBER47......
Thanks Kool!!! Just got back from Lowes and picked up an 8oz bottle of Air tool oil for about 2.50 and a couple of dremel polishing brushes. The bearings are on the way. So this should work out just fine. thanks again!
By the way....how do you like the power of your 46AX on your PA Bad boy with the 12x4? Im basically doing the same setup on an OMP ProYak.
I LOVE IT???.... oh!, did i say that loud enough????.....low pitch prop is the trick and keep it very,very light.....something in the 12x4 size with minimum flex will work best.....these profile planes were not meant for speed, i've got other planes for that......the design factor behind the profile fuselage was to narrow the fusealage and allow as much air as possible to flow over the control surfaces(ailerons,elevator,rudder)......low pitch prop allows the motor to maintain high RPM's at all times and thus huge amounts of constant air-flow over the control surfaces at very low speeds, without too much forward thrust.....that's how these 3D'er's came about.....i like that i can bring this thing "low" and "inside", right down on the runway.....boy, you talk about "drawing a crowd"......i bring this thing right down on the runway and keep it moving the whole time, head over tail, tail over head and yet it stay's in a 10-20 foot envelope the whole time.....ro347, "ARE YOU DROOLIN' YET", HA! HA! HA!.....get that thing built brother, p.m. me brother, if i can be of any assistance.....KOOLKRABBER47.....
