Too funny..Recent problems with new gassers...
Beam mounts are not good, need radial
Radial mopunts are not right, need beam.
Side carbs stick out too far, need rear.
Rear carbs stick out too far, need side.
Front carbs are too close to the prop, need longer hub...
Rear exhaust is too close to the firewall.
Side exhaust sticks out too far, need rear exhaust...
Engine is too heavy, should be lighter.
Engine is too light, need lead in the tail to balance.
Ignition takes too much power, need a heavy battery...
Factory supplied spark plug is no good, need a CM6, which is too expensive at most retailers, or not in stock.
Spark plug caps are too loose, need a hose clamp.
Spark plug caps are too tight, hard to remove...
4.8 to 6 volts means 7.2, ignition gets hot and quits...

And the beat goes on.........

I will guess that is in response to my question about the mounting option. Glad I could provide you with a laugh while wondering if the design would end up being more like the 30.

Your awesome Ralph, right on!

Anyone that wants to get on an advance notice list can send me an email at [email protected] when I get more info on price and availability I will email the group and they will have the first shot.

Wow! I have always read good things about you here, thanks for the reply instead of jumping on Antique's "humor" bandwagon.

I guess there is always Tower Hobbies or RCGF when the time comes...[sm=eek.gif]
