Default RE: RCGF 62 Info/Performance

Henry does not carry the 62 but really wanted it more than the 57, they say the 57 has more power... will not argue with that but I wanted the RCGF 62 hoping to have similar numbers as my Zenoah G62s.

The screws will tighten I just notice they have play as they thread in... that I am not used to seeing on an engine this size. I do not see this on Zenoahs or 3W the screw fit well in the threads. Hopefully its no biggie and she fly!

Agree the brittleness of the head kind of scares me... if I stand behind it I should be fine!

I only need to test tightness of a few screws to know they all need to be loctite and tighten. I removed all of them using an allen key and two fingers. The Zenoahs I had to use my hand and a long allen to remove screws.

Making sure the motor does not fall apart is really the manufacturers responsibility, more than half would just mount this motor on a plane and fly it....
