Default RE: Moki Engines Thread

Cheers Captinjohn!

It's difficult not to like the Moki 1.35, from the moment you open the box. It has a very solid feel about it and the parts have a 'machined from billet' look about them. Lovely! The only problems I've had with mine have been brought about by my putting it into storage. I can forgive it for having a little sulk!

It's interesting to see all the petrol versions - I wonder how they perform? I'm thinking about building (...ahem, 'slotting together') another Funtana, the X 100. My wife can 'have' the old one. She doesn't fly, but I'm sure she'll understand. I nearly bought a 74" Yak on ebay that had a Moki 1.80 included - had it not been for the 600mile round trip, I'd have pounced on it.

I'll post some more videos soon. I'm no 3D pilot (yet) but it's very easy to perform all the usual aerobatics with the Moki under the hood. The sound and response of the Moki deserves credit and I believe the engine is still a well kept secret. Videos help spread the word, undoubtedly.
