Hey folks,

I tried to start the engine today but it wont keep running. i think the fuel is not reaching the engine as the engine only start on the prime fuel. i opened up the walbro carburetor and the diaphram seems stiff from age. I think I need to change all the gasket of the carburetor due to its age and hardening.

I have ordered a cheap weed eater engine (30cc) new hoping that i can just replace the entire carburetor to the engine and see how it goes. hopefully it will be powerful enough to hover. meanwhile, at least thsi shown that the 6V ignition system (external battery pack to the ignition box) is working.

also, i am searching for the main blades. may I know what is the lenght of blade this heli needs? 79 or 80 cm? anyone knows a good place for a great deal to get these rare sized blades or is there any other heli using this size so i cna use it directly?


thanks.,

Lawrence
