Default RE: Cox piston Failure

ProBroJoe;

Yes, it kinda describes what happened. This was a stock Medallion, not reving up too much, but it still failed. I have others that are Tee Dee based without any, as yet, failures.

I would really like to see a full Castor based 25% fuel, I do not care for Klotz as I find it flashes off, the piston turns black from the flash burning, I doubt the failure would have happened using all Castor lube.

The Wilpeda stuff is cool, have ran across it myself. The lising for the RTF Cox models tells me how many of the C.L. planes I had and wrecked over the years. The Super Stunter BF-109 was a favorite flyer.
